    Steel Diver Sub Wars is a solid game overall, but with the limited stages of the campaign, the free version lacks any reason for me to buy the full version other than the gameplay itself, which is still very good. Recommended for short bursts of time if you do not want to buy the full version.

    Its measured pace is precisely what makes it such a fresh twist on the shooter. [Apr 2014, p.82]

    Despite the minimalist design and a lack of game modes, the best of Sub Wars lies in the nature of strategic battles and the online that was not present in Steel Diver.

    A great improvement over its predecessor, Steel Diver: Sub Wars is successful at putting the player in a submarine environment, recreating several aspects of these vessels within the boundaries set by the 3DS. The overall short length of its one player mode and the lack of options on multiplayer mode end up becoming obstacles on its route, but this is a title that will not disappoint.
