The single-player modes are marred by questionable AI which removes much of the intensity and in effect, fun, of playing the game.
-
It helps to be a History Channel fanatic to really love this game. Fans of the board game who have never played RTS will no doubt be very unhappy.

PC FormatThe problem is that what worked so well in "Kohan" can't help but feel a little artificial when applied to a more realistic milieu. [Christmas 2004, p.110]
-
Misses the mark slightly by adding a couple of things that don't work quite as well they could have.
-
A slight disappointment, since it tries to meld two strategy styles and falls short in both cases.
-
Although based on a popular board game, you'll soon grow bored with this game.
-
The single-player portions of the game are ridiculously easy, even on the hard settings. Only a few campaign missions are remotely challenging, and even these cases are due to poor AI with Allied forces.
-
AceGamezIt's not a terrible effort and there's some light fun to be had, but Axis & Allies is just an average strategy game, combining an unoriginal setting with the slightly interesting yet ultimately disappointing World Map mode, wrapped in dated graphics.
-
The lack of sea units and carriers of any type make the title needlessly tedious.
-
It’s not an awful game by any scale, but it is tepid and flawed in its execution.

Computer Gaming WorldA.I. is A-crappy. I have rarely encountered a game that evinces more clearly the rigid, stimulus-response nature of algorithmic thought. [Jan 2005, p.100]
