The editors didn't like
Inability to easily see enemy team's attack range slows the action
Strengths/weaknesses chart is hard to read quickly
Some limitations in online play
The text is stylistic
But can be hard to read. For example
“N's” have a weird shape to them and look more like “M's” that have been squished on the right side. Another weird aspect is that the map doesn't move if you are pressing directional buttons wh

At the end of the day, Wargroove feels like an Advance Wars game made by fans of the series who finally got fed up waiting for Nintendo and Intelligent Systems to revisit it. The lack of mid-missions checkpoints or saves can sometimes be frustrating but e...
Special 'groove' moves add tactical depth, Charming retro styling and cute dogs, It's pretty much Advance Wars
Awkward interface leads to mistakes, Difficulty really ramps up in later levels, It's pretty much Advance Wars

Abstract: Halfway through playing WarGroove, which is secretly a pretty odd game, a thought occurred to me which turned out, the more I considered it, to be a pretty odd thought. What if this game isn't made by Chucklefish as the title screen suggests, the thought...
Chucklefish's strategy tribute does nothing worse than Advance Wars, and little better - instead, it's exactly what it needs to be to spiritually succeed. It's small, in both character models and design ambition, but it's probably going to be massive. Des...
