Just because this battle fits in the palm of your hand doesn't mean the stakes are small. On the contrary, this all-or-nothing fight will have you accessing guns, grenades, launchers, and weaponry of all sorts. Players assume command of an army that's out to reclaim a world that's been broken up by warring factions. The battle map is essentially a grid, and moving units is like moving chess pieces on a board -- each of the units can move a specific amount of spaces within this grid, and can only attack at a certain distance from specific enemies. Advance Wars features more than 115 maps, a map editor, head-to-head play via link cable, and an easy-to-understand tutorial mode for beginners.

Creio eu que seja a melhor porta de entrada para os RPGs Táticos, um baita tutorial e muitas fases criartivas que aproveitam bem a mecânica. Não sei se o remaster pega a mesma essência que essa pérola aqui
incredibly fun strategy game. Short and intense levels and easy to learn but difficult to master mechanics. Amazing game
It's good!
Juegazo para quienes nos gusta el genero. Es un titulo que a pesar de haberlo jugado por primera vez en 2024, su apartado artistico sigue intacto y sigue siendo complejo su sistema. No envejecio en absolutamente nada y eso es lo que lo hace impresionante. Mi unica gran gran critica es que su tutorial es largo, pesado y no te enseña lo que deberia de verdad porque a la hora de combatir es cuando de verdad entendes el como jugar. Por todo lo demas, un titulazo atemporal!
Advance Wars: Dual Strike is a game I played for hundreds of hours as a kid, and it's one of my favorite games ever, but I never went back to play the first two games on GBA until now. The original Advance Wars is a little too easy on certain missions, the AI can be reckless and give you easy trades, the story is quite basic, and it lacks some balancing or QOL changes that I miss from DS, but it still has the charm that made me love Advance Wars DS so much. As a final note, what a huge glow-up Kanbei had lol, on DS he is a serious and menacing badass while here he's just a caricature of a dumb but likable general/dad.
Honestly, I'm not sure if this game is worth 3.5 but this was my favorite game on GBA as a kid and I can't rate it lower. While the game is still beautiful and the combat (kinda) fun, the story is really MEH, and the game relies too much on artillery. The missions made me bored sometimes, however, the last one is great and I hope the next opus is going to features more of this type, or at least more challenges!
Played the GBA version on R36S.
