    Whilst I can’t justify anyone purchasing this title, there was effort put in at least… The developer’s pride for an Advance Wars style game shined through, which I can appreciate. It has its issues whether it be a cluttered user interface, bad graphics, and similar environments, which can make it easy to overlook this title, and I can’t say you’d be missing much. If you are an Advance Wars fan, you might want to try looking elsewhere, that is, if you can’t overlook these points of concern (a good starting place might be Chucklefish’s latest hit – Wargroove).

    Platform: Switch

    Flexing itself as an entry to a rather under-represented genre on Switch, Kronos scratches the itch of the turn-based strategy RPG fan. While not nearly as simple to pick up as WarGroove, the game has wonderful visuals and a fantastical setting, plopping you deep in the far reaches of space on this sci-fi war romp.

    The complex game play adds a difficulty element that isn’t unheard of for strategy games of this type, but the UI caused a bit more trouble with navigation during my play time. I did particularly enjoy the ramp up of the mission difficulty, and how the game’s AI was actually a joy to content with for those who enjoy tactical combat.

    The replayability for missions is decent, and while each mission can feel largely tedious to grind out, doing so rewards you with more medals and a higher sense of accomplishment. The difficulty is nothing to shake a stick at, and I had to replay some missions multiple times in order to scrape by with even a minuscule victory, but as my combat skills sharpened and I learned more of the intricacies of battle, I found myself carving out sound strategies many turns in advance on each map.

    Kronos would be a good title for anyone with a lot of time to dedicate to one sitting, and who doesn’t mind a loose story that’s not very immersive, but easy enough to follow along with.

    Pros:
    - Wonderful visual aesthetic.
    - Fantastic combat system.
    - Local multiplayer.

    Cons:
    - Missions can be excruciatingly long.
    - The user interface is clunky and hard to get used to.

    Overall: 7.5/10

    Battle Worlds: Kronos is a great game for anyone looking to take a crack at being a tactician in space. Don’t forget your oxygen tank.

    In my opinion is a decent warlike game, turn based, where you manage different kind of units: land, navy and air army.

    In my opinion is a decent warlike game, turn based, where you manage different kind of units: land, navy and air army.

    Graphics and history are poor nowadays, but the game fulfills its purpose.

    The game has like 20-25 missions, that every mission take you from 4 to 8 hours, more or less. Having to manage 10-25 units in every missión is a little burdensome.

    I like that in every mission you "discover" a new unit, and you have to learn to use it.

    The game has some difficulty, unless you discover the order to complete each mission and some other tricks.
