A surprisingly fun, challenging, and -- if you've never played the original Apple II games -- unique GBA experience that's well worth the 20 dollar price tag.
-
Nintendo PowerGameplay is intense, but the difficulty may be a little high for beginners. [Apr 2005, p.101]
-
Game InformerI found the control to be fairly aggravating (especially the airplanes). [Apr 2005, p.142]
-
And just in case Super Army War wasn't stripped down enough, there's no battery backup -- just a password system. It's true that portable games don't need to be as full-featured as console titles, but people have e-mailed me Flash games that are deeper than Super Army War (not to mention more fun).
-
Play MagazineExtremely slippery controls make handling both the chopper and the plane a chore. [Feb 2005, p.80]
-
Cheat Code CentralThe sounds of vehicles, guns and explosions are crisp and loud, perfectly suited for a game of this caliber (pun intended).
-
Being able to control both helicopters and fighter planes at least adds some variety to what is at times a fairly dry gameplay experience.
-
As a top down RTS game, Super Army War would have been great. But as a 2D side-scroller, this game is a logistical nightmare.
