Total War on your phone - how does it compare?
Comment
There’s a law in the Games Journalist Handbook (7th Edition) mandating that all mobile strategy games must be compared to either Civilization: Revolution or Advance Wars. Or both. Total War Battles, notably, is not comparable to either of them - but, as you’ll discover, it’s not particularly like Total War either. Total War: Battles focuses on a small aspect of the Total War games, the battles. It has a little of Civilization Revolution’s superb cleanness of presentation and something of Advance Wars relentless battles, but stylistically TWB is more comparable to the Age of Empires series. It’s a hex-based wargame set in an oversaturated Japanese world, with a story-driven campaign.
