### 3/5 — Battleship too OP

*2019-08-29*

Yes it is the most costly but it needs a weakness so destoryers should be able to massive amount of damage to ships and aircraft since they also have anti air guns on them

### 3/5 — Beautiful game, just needs solo mode

*2019-05-30*

XeeWar is an awesome game that seems to dredge up amazing memories of playing Advance Wars with my brothers. I love the graphics which are simple but effective, the  units which allow for some strategy without being too complicated, and the easy interface. I would definitely give 5 stars except that I can’t play it without first waiting for another player to first complete their move. A solo mode that allowed for Human vs Computer would make this game incredible!

### 4/5 — Needs fix for bevel

*2019-05-18*

Will make this a 5 star game once they fix the game for iPhone X with the bevel. I can’t see how many credit I have to build things in game.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! I’ll look into it.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2019-02-02*

This game is ok. It needs a story mode as other have said.

### 3/5 — Does anybody even buy the expansions

*2018-12-16*

I love these type of games but it seems after buying the navy expansion I can’t find anyone to play against online, you should possibly make it free since it’s only a dollar for the first 500 ppl that play the game so more ppl will play it feel like I just wasted a buck lol

### 2/5 — Air and sea

*2018-12-07*

Dislike how you have to buy air and sea

### 3/5 — Dommage

*2018-10-17*

Les jeux pourrais être super mais il y a peut de joueurs et on peut faire peut de partie en même temps .. si au moins on pouvait effacer les parties où il n’y a pas d’adversaire pour en commencer une autre avec un/une ami(e) de plus je ne peux plus réouvrir les jeux depuis qu’on m’a invité ..

C’est vraiment dommage parce qu’il vaudrait vraiment 4,5/5 
Si vous pouvez régler le problème de l’application qui crash dès que Game Center s’allume svp 
(Et pourquoi pas augmenter le nombre de match à 7)

### 3/5 — Constantly crashing

*2018-06-23*

As much as I love this game. It keeps crashing. iPhone 6

### 4/5 — Could be better

*2018-02-10*

What is irritating me the most about this game is that there is NO campaign mode and most of the people you play against take a really long time to move.  Please add a campaign mode.

### 2/5 — Love the game but got problems

*2017-12-12*

I was so excited to find this new version of an old game I used to love. I played a few turns, bought a reasonably priced upgrade, and invited some friends... but now the game just crashes every time I open it. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling but the problem persists. Help!?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Desperate need for playability

*2026-04-13*

I see great potential with this game. Simple, fun, all anybody can ask for except-

You NEED solo mode. Or at the very least a time out system thats as short as 1 or 2 minutes tops. Not 24 hours. 

Until your opponent times out from inactivity after a couple minutes (1 or 2 minutes). This game will not receive its easy profiting it’s missing out on. 

I am only giving a 1 star at the moment because, at the moment this game is unplayable.

### 1/5 — Good game held back by being multiplayer only

*2025-02-26*

I like just most everything about this game except that it’s multiplayer only. I could handle that if there was a practice mode or something. I end up playing experienced players who all see to get the first move every time. I’m then stomped into the ground without ever getting the opportunity to completely understand the rules of the game. 
It’s sad really.

### 1/5 — Personne sur le jeu

*2023-01-05*

Faite un mode vos ordi

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2020-10-26*

No tutorial
No explanation
Players taking ages
Slow

Absolutely dreadful

### 1/5 — Slow

*2018-02-14*

Slow

### 2/5 — Primitive game

*2022-12-21*

I love the concept of hex games but this game is too primitive. UniWar has a way better gameplay platform, including seeing damage before you move, seeing how much damage the enemy can make next turn and how far they can move, playing against AI, different factions and way more.

### 2/5 — Has potential but confusing

*2022-02-06*

The hits and damage scoring is way to confusing based on terrain and so forth. Should be either better explained or simplified. Cool concept but not well executed.

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2021-03-03*

I can see why it could be a really good game but there’s a bug where the AI doesn’t take there turn so I cant rate it properly

### 2/5 — Needs Balancing

*2019-09-02*

The game is nice but there are obvious hard counters.
Army Maps? Mortar spam. 
Air Maps? Stop making troops. Only make fighters and gunships.
Sea Maps? Frigates are literally worthless. Destroyers are hardly any better. Battleships simply cannot be countered. This needs to be fixed.

### 2/5 — In App Purchase Bug

*2019-03-25*

Hey, i don't normally write reviews but fora free game this is an excellent hex strategy game to play with friends, I love the simplicity and learning what unit combos are best etc. The thing that killed me was that upon buying the "Air Units" expansion the game immediately crashed and has since crashed every time i try to open it. Ive uninstalled and re-installed numerous times and no luck. Please fix this so i can restore the 5 star review.

(edit) Developer, has responded that issue is being looked into super glad that this might get fixed.

**Developer response:** Hi! I'm really sorry to hear this, I'll look into it this ASAP.

### 5/5 — Super Spiel mit Potenzial

*2020-07-03*

Schön wäre eine Karte, auf der sowohl Luftwaffe als auch Marine zu spielen wären!

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2018-07-27*

Very fun gameplay. Only thing I would change is the time given for turns. It holds up the gameplay a little. More game slots would also help this issue. Still very fun to play.

### 5/5 — Flat out rules + friends = fun

*2018-06-24*

Great simple rule set, leads to quick action and an overall great game. Battle your friends and find out who has the best strategy.

### 5/5 — Account Deleted

*2018-04-26*

Why was my account deleted?

### 5/5 — Awesome Turn Based Strategy

*2018-04-02*

Amazing game. I love it. It's so simple and smooth.Just like advanced wars. Will you add the ability to use land sea and air on one map?

### 5/5 — Scratching my Advance Wars itch

*2018-01-09*

And it’s multiplayer, and properly turn-based (71 hour timeouts between turns!). Push notifications work wonderfully through GameCenter, and it’s a lot of fun! Brilliant work.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2017-11-18*

At first,  the game looks a bit simple, in terms of sparse UI and few options. But, it’s growing on me. Reminds me of the old Squad Leader game .. also a bit like classic Empire. More animations, art,....and maybe a ‘dark mode’? All the white white white is hard to look at.

### 4/5 — Good game but no ai

*2022-09-07*

I really like this game but your have to wait a long time most of the time for the other player to make a move and there is no ai you can play against. If you make a ai it would make this game 5 stars

### 4/5 — Fun but could be better

*2022-08-11*

Great game, some maps could be adjusted.  Feels tough to turn the tide by turtling on most maps and on others you win only by being more patient.  Gameplay is intuitive.  Repair should be automatic for all unused units though.  Two turns to capture instead of one would change the gameplay on a lot of maps.

Also wish you could move through your own pieces, but maybe that’s a feature not a glitch.
Battleships are a bit OP, and don’t see a strategic purpose for the bomber yet. 

Wish it had a bigger user base so I wasn’t facing the same handful of main people over and over and then the new guys on their first match or two.

### 4/5 — Eigentlich super

*2019-06-09*

Wie der Titel schon sagt, ist das Spiel eigentlich super, aber ich fände es besser, wenn es nicht nur gegen Online-Gegner ginge, sondern auch gegen eine CPU.
