Apes Warfare

The game, played like a game on a table, was very exciting. It seems to really appeal to your sensibilities. I recommend it to users who enjoy board games or Switch strategy games.

Overall it was a fun game but there's plenty of things that also bothered me. First things first - it's a good Advance Wars clone and uses the units as their main foundation. There are a few new units and tweaks to the balance that makes this game stand out a little and soothes that AW itch you might be having. So if you played AW1+2 and want more of that, go ahead! Now onto the bad stuff. Some are minor but annoying since they do stack up. Played on a Steam Deck. - music doesn't loop well - early character animation loops are extremely choppy, which looks jarring - inputs aren't registered correctly unless you play in 60fps (playing at 40fps felt almost unplayable, playing it at 30fps was alright but not perfect) *it runs well at 60fps on a Steam Deck but drains the battery quite quickly - performance in general was a bit choppy - the last mission was tedious rather than being hard - CEO powers aren't unique and you never know which ones you or your enemy has (there's usually three powers to choose from) - overall lack of polish A huge downside is the online requirement to play this game, which doesn't make any sense since it features a 35 mission single player campaign. Hopefully that will get fixed in some future update. The more you play the game, the better the character animations get and the better the music gets. I hope the devs won't spend too much time to fix this game and maybe instead tackle for a grander and way more polished sequel to this game! It's a good foundation for a potentially great tactical strategy game.
