This game requires a constant internet connection to play, which keeps me from playing on long trips or flights, where an internet connection is not the best. I wish I could just pay for the whole game download it one time. It is especially annoying since I know that is how this game is sold on other platforms like PlayStation. As for the game itself, I really enjoy the combination of card play and XCOM like game play. The progression and 40k story is enjoyable as you unlock new classes and characters. I would give it 5 stars if not for what I said above. ### 4/5 — Custom Mode DLC? *2022-12-09, version 1.4.56* There should be a DLC in which you can create your own scenarios in a certain selection of maps. We should be able to use all factions featured in the campaign. I know gamers absolutely love that stuff and spend for it. You guys would make bank! Please consider! ### 3/5 — Go play Mechanicus *2022-09-10, version 1.4.52* Okay, so I had just finished playing Mechanicus, and this caught my eye as a good turn based strategy game to play next. It’s not. The game’s death animation is very extravagant and unnecessary, and the character models aren’t amazing. I HATE the ‘choose your direction’ when you move thing. It doesn’t add any strategy elements, it’s just tedious. The characters move too slow, and some missions will make you go to a certain area to win. The story is horrible, the gameplay is okay. Don’t spend money on this game, but if it’s free *like on mobile*, it’s okay. If you haven’t played Mechanicus however, it is more expensive but it is a Dawn of War quality game. Okay game, not the best. Thank you for listening to my Ted talk. ### 4/5 — New to cell phone games *2022-07-26, version 1.4.52* I’m enjoying the game. I took my time with it and wanted to learn the game before spending money on it but all the best deals expired before I knew what any of it could really do. Other then that it’s been a pleasant experience. Having 30 cards is somewhat difficult to manage because none of it seems to be organized in a way that you can pick what cards you will have when. Might be more fun later on when you have tons of items for every situation. I’m already operating with a handicap trying to play games in Georgia hate crime agenda because all of my technology is sabotaged and I don’t get to communicate with anyone. ### 5/5 — Endlessly replayable *2022-06-30, version 1.4.49* IMO a perfectly designed game. Combining the best of Warhammer, Magic the Gathering and chess with PVP, campaign and individual battles in Hunger Games-style arenas. The PVP and Hall of Sorrows modes are endlessly replayable - trying out different decks, squads and strategies. I’ve been playing for months and I’m still learning new things. Tough tradeoffs are everywhere: whether you’re focusing on damage, speed, amor, overwatch, stun, confusion, rage, blaze, indirect fire, or card removal, engaging and scrambling for the power ups or playing cat and mouse from range, concentrating fire on the enemy’s hero, or focusing on taking out his squad first - all are effective strategies. The best solution often depends on the situation, so be prepared to change your strategy on the fly since no battle plan survives contact with the enemy. Somehow they fit all of this complexity in a fast paced, easy to learn mobile game. I only paid $5.99 for one special squad member but I’ve defeated the highest ranked players in PVP - so the paywall isn’t a real barrier. It would be nice to have “Rematch?” button after a PVP game, so you could offer to battle again after an especially good match but that’s my only idea for improvement. If you like turn based strategy this is the game for you. **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you a lot for such a great feedback! We appreciate your support and suggestions. We will forward it to our development team to make the game better. Have fun! ### 2/5 — Deep thoughts from fenris *2022-06-16, version 1.4.48* First off it’s an amazing game with interesting mechanics in the spirit of war hammer. Just like any collectible card game (mtg) they make you pay for the cards you need to advance, late in the 4th stage. You can’t advance or complete in pvp without buying $50-$150 worth of cards n credits so consider that or just play thru till you hit the wall. Still fun. Deathwatch was better all tho all around. ### 1/5 — PvP Matchmaking ignores rank *2022-02-27, version 1.4.41* I used to love this game. Unfortunately when I try to play PvP with a rank in the 400s I am consistently matched against players with a single digit rank. Their cards are so much more powerful that strategy has little to do with the outcome. I was upset when they released a new character that can only be gained through spending absurd amounts of money in their spending “tournaments.” I guess that turned a lot of people off because I now rarely get matched with opponents within a hundred points of my rank in PvP and now find myself paired against obvious bots which never used to be a thing. Seems like the only humans still playing are the ones who have too much money invested in it to back away. ### 4/5 — Keeps crashing *2022-01-23, version 1.4.40* The game was good when I use go play it, I then deleted it make some space for my phone but decided to download it again, though now it seems to keep crashing every time I open it. ### 1/5 — Constant crash will not load in after tutorial *2022-01-22, version 1.4.40* I have 4 iPads and several iPhones and this is a 12 pro max. Game loads and updates. As soon as it gets to loading screen the app shuts off. I delete the app and re load and same issue. Loaded on my iPad and can play tutorial but as soon as campaign starts it crashes to desktop. Just shuts off. Will not load. All devices are updated to current patch and app even updated today but noooooo it will not load! ### 5/5 — Would be a great MOBA *2022-01-03, version 1.4.38* I love all of the warhammer games but I wish there was one with free blades, space marines, and all the others in it. I think it would be awsome if you made a warhammer 40,000 MOBA style game with free blades, space marines and all the others ## Frequently asked questions about Warhammer 40,000 ### What kind of game is Warhammer 40,000: Space Wolf?
