You have to take command over the combined forces of the Allies, plan and implement the operation, which will go down in history.

Both are free to download. War Commander sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Second World War Western Front sells 23 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
War Commander holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: War Commander has 13K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of War Commander's written reviews are positive against 80% of Second World War Western Front's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
War Commander ships an update fortnightly, Second World War Western Front monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
