    Super Robot Wars 30 celebrates thirty years of an iconic franchise for many Japanese robots fans, and it does it in the best way: with an official western release, although limited to the PC version available on Steam.

    SRW 30 is a great starting point for newcomers to the series; it is also a milestone for veteran SRW players due to how it has revamped its narrative structure to be more open-ended and non-linear. If there is one common thread throughout every single SRW game, it has always been to form your giant robot dream team and have fun breaking the game in half with them. SRW 30 is no different.

    A love letter to mecha fans. Unfortunately a complete lack of any semblance of challenge makes it very hard to recommend to anyone but the most die hard of giant robots fan.

    I can't recommend this game for advanced players on Tactics and RPG games, its easy, lack of any strategy or great history context, forI can't recommend this game for advanced players on Tactics and RPG games, its easy, lack of any strategy or great history context, for obvious reasons, its a mix of various anime mecha characters on generic missions that at some point will fight against their usual enemy, with a tons of dialog (maybe take more time in this that in battle) and beautiful animations scenes in battle, nut that's is all.

    If you are a fan of mecha animes in general, and don't want a truly strategy game go for it, if you don't, you'll be very disappointed.    … Full Review »

For newcomers the game has several difficulty levels and can be very easy.
    The stages are shorter than in previous games, but more rewarding, overall despite the large amount of content it is a relaxing game and can make you satisfied with only 2 stages a day, but it can also be quite addictive because you are always unlocking something.    … Full Review »

I highly recommend this game to newcomers. A lot of awesome mecha anime IP's and some Toku stuff (like Ultraman and Gridman) are involved. Easy to get into, the game explains how everything works in all the guides supplied in-game, Difficulty Levels are allowed to be changed in the intermission screen if the players would like to make it more challenging or more relaxed depending on thier playstyle, Story overall gives a great expierence for players to be involved in. Animations for battle scenes are fairly good, though I will be honest some of the previous games have had a little better, but nothing to really harm the gameplay expierence. I would also like to point out, this game gives great information about each series IP in the game, and helps give possible intrest to players to learn more about the IPs involved. Theme songs of every IP is present in the game, so players are able to have a kind of nestalgia feel with some of the shows they may have grown up with. Again I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves mecha or who loves strategy games in general.… Full Review »
