BIVOUAC: Real-World Territory Warfare Don't just touch grass; own it! Transform your neighborhood into a tactical battlefield. Bivouac is an AR strategy game where physical movement meets deck-building depth—no couch required. YOUR PARK IS THE BATTLEFIELD Drop forts around you. Extend supply lines by moving through real space. Build outposts and artillery to dominate territory. Every meter you walk strengthens your position—or exposes your weakness. SUPPLY LINES = VICTORY Territory isn't about buildings—it's about networks. Connect structures to create supply lines that score points and sustain your forces. But beware: destroy an enemy's fort and watch their entire chain collapse in 30 seconds of cascading destruction. TACTICAL DEPTH, FAST MATCHES Multiple game modes with different constraints to test your tactical abilities and your endurance. Multiple win conditions mean you have to stay on your toes to win! FREE TO DOMINATE Standard game comes free for everyone. Subscriptions unlock additional game modes and features for you and your opponent! STRATEGY THAT MOVES YOU Whether you're a board game tactician or mobile gaming enthusiast, Bivouac delivers something different: competitive strategy that gets you off the couch and into the world. Built for parks, playgrounds, and parking lots. Designed for players who think while they move. Requires iOS 18.6 or greater. GameCenter account required for multiplayer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Bivouac at none against War Grids's shown. War Grids's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (18.2 vs 26.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
