    Don't listen to critics. This game is a prime example how detached from reality they are. The game is very cool. Its your casual, tactical RTS with tons of destruction. I don't know how to describe it but playing the game gives a sensation of... satisfaction. You know the joy of blowing **** up in Minecraft with TNT? This is it. This is the taste.

    This is one of the best strategy titles for switch. It’s a large battle simulator with hundreds of units and multiple factions in huge free for alls that you alter by adding units and traps and turrets. It almost plays a bit like an RTS. I’ve played dozens of hours and its unique challenges keep it fresh. I wish I’d found it sooner, as there aren’t many good strategy/simulation games onThis is one of the best strategy titles for switch.

    Some pretty cool ideas and fun battle set-ups are largely handicapped by bad controls, and the campaign needs some overhauling with its length and unlock structure. These small things get in the way of the simple fun of watching crazy battles unfold. Ultimately, there are only so many things to try before it starts to become boring. Largely the battles are its strength, and far too often the game trips up on itself, when it would be better served getting out of the way.

    Make War is a promising strategy game that is plagued by localisation issues. If you’re still interested in its unique simulation elements, I’d recommend playing it on PC to avoid the frustration of using a cursor on the Switch.

    Overall, Make War is far from strategy and more simulation as you seemingly try to make the battle the best it can be.
