What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
While it has similarities to AW, it's also very distinct in many ways, from the capture mechanics, to the way commanders and grooves work, to how critical hits impact tactics.
I just can't find many games with a battle system like this (Fire Emblem comes close but it's not close enough!!!) Beautiful art and animations, a lovely story too, and the intro cinematic is incredible.
Along with a great group of volunteer staff, we've run competitive events for over 3 years, and I think this PvP setting is where the game thrives.
All of that comes together with a beautiful pixel-art style that reminds me of old-school strategy games, and a very upbeat, catchy soundtrack that fits perfectly.
The co-op campaign is non-linear compared to the SP campaign and honestly a lot more fun despite having like a third of SP's total missions.
Naval combat is rebalanced with a multi-function alternate infantry and cheaper costs across the board, a real feather in the cap for WG.
