WAR, the most famous strategy board game from Grow, now is available in a cool brand new virtual version! There are two boards to play intense battles: Classic Game: Feel like a real general. Aim for your goal and carefully define your strategy. Attack at the right time, protect your borders and defend your territories. Dominate entire continents, invade and conquer opponent territories. But evaluate your movements carefully because, just like in great wars, poorly planned attacks can make great powers fall while the correct strategy can transform small armies into great empires! Roman Empire Game: With internal conflicts and increasing barbarian invasions, the time has come for the rise of the Caesars, the Roman Emperors. Be a true strategist in command of entire Roman Legions and conquer the greatest empire the world has ever seen. Gather your friends and play the digital version of this classic game, the app makes the game much faster and more dynamic, making the games last much shorter than in the board version. GAME MODES » LOCAL MODE: In this mode, you can play with up to 6 people (classic board) or 4 people (Roman Empire board) on the same device, as if it were a digital board. You can also play alone against the computer. There is no need to register for this mode. Play FREE and unlimited! » ONLINE MODE: Have fun playing WAR Online with 3 to 6 people. Now, you can play anytime and with people from anywhere. The "SmartMatching" intelligence system finds the ideal opponent for you, making your matches much more dynamic and challenging.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: War at every 3 weeks against War Strategy's every 4 months. War also leads on rating (3.5 vs 3.2) and ratings volume (118 vs 25). War Strategy's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. War sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and War Strategy sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
War holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 118 and 25 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 16% of War's written reviews are positive against 20% of War Strategy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
War ships an update every 3 weeks, War Strategy every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
