    They say to shoot for the moon and if you miss you’ll be among the stars. Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator shoots for the moon but you quickly realize you’re not in a rocket ship but a bicycle with training wheels. Trying to fly a bicycle to the moon has a lot of issues, in this case it's the gameplay elements, the obscure camera angles, and the repetitiveness that has Gallic Wars landing in the grass five feet from takeoff.

    I find Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator more of a proof of concept than an actual game. There are so many far superior options in the tactics category that this game is even a waste of time for beginners.

    Although Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator has some positive aspects, the game feels very much like a mobile title rather than a fully-fledged console release, best played in small bursts. The gameplay mechanics are just too basic to be enjoyable for any significant period of time and after just a few battles, the overall experience starts to feel tedious. It’s disappointing considering that it is trying to do something unique but it just fails to hit the ground running.
