RedSun is a prime example of the genre classic RTS, unjustly forgotten today. In this game you directly and, as is self-explanatory name for the genre, real-time control of troops, build a base, plan attacks and to strengthen the defense on the battlefield. At your disposal different types of units - each ones with their own objectives, strengths and weaknesses. Also, do not forget that the game is just beginning to develop. We, in its turn, will make every effort to develop the game and not let you get bored. This is just the beginning. The game is made in 2D isometric style. The game features: - Virtually unchanged classical control, with the addition of new features, as well as multiselect units from one to several. On screens with HD and FHD use the zoom if you can see finely. - Building base with classic MCV anywhere on the map (double-click on the engineering machine), as well as other technological structures. Mining crystals harvesters. - Powerful weapon in the form of a nuclear explosion (soon there will be other, and it is possible to purchase a quantitative stock) System improvements Arsenal for the development of new units. Achievements and medals. Differences from other games, so-called strategic: - There is no dependence on donation, i.e., in the game at the moment, there are no internal purchases. - Create any number of units and buildings, there are almost no restrictions, in addition to the resources of the device, otherwise it will lag. In addition, do not forget that the game is only the beginning of its development in the early autumn, and we in turn will do our best to develop the game and not let You get bored. Thank You for the criticism, reviews, positive comments, suggestions, we first try to make a game good old time RTS strategies of the late 90's and early 2000, to correct errors and shortcomings in the game in time, and to help players understand the mechanics of the game, though it is not particularly simple. P. S. To update the maps and other content, it is desirable to have always included the Internet.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: RedSun RTS at free with in-app purchases against War Commander's subscription. RedSun RTS also leads on review sentiment (69% vs 54%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). War Commander's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. War Commander sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and RedSun RTS sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

War Commander holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: War Commander has 13K ratings behind it against 411, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of War Commander's written reviews are positive against 69% of RedSun RTS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

War Commander ships an update fortnightly, RedSun RTS every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
