 The best to date April 29, 2008
Soren Sundberg (Maine)
In my opinion this is the best Advance Wars to date. They changed how CO's work and their powers to add more balance to the game. This is also the first Advance Wars with a story that keeps you entertained. Definatly buy this if you enjoyed any of the past games or if you are interested in the series.
Great strategy game May 8, 2008

I had the original Advance Wars game on the GBA. This game is very similar. There are areas where you can use your stylus, but I've use to use the feature, as I prefer doing everything with the buttons. Honestly, the dual screens aren't utilized very well in this game, but it was never a problem to begin with in the original GBA game, so I can't complain.
The battles are well-thought out, offering differing ways to complete the same mission. There are a TON of units, each offering their strengths and weaknesses.
The storyline is fine, but it's forgetful... it's neat that there are now different branches to the game, offering more replay value.
Gameplay is simple, but complicated, in that it's easy to move units and fire, but a strategy is required to do this efficiently.
The tutorial is well-done, but anyone familiar with a previous Advance Wars will have no problem jumping in.
 Entertaining! May 27, 2008

This game is fun to play... the story is interesting... easy to play and learn, my learning curve is very steep... However... it is going to be harder & harder when you proceed thru the games... (which is good, right?)
Great addition May 27, 2008
Aris E. Blevins (los angeles, ca USA)
I've been a fan of Advance Wars for a bit now, and thought Dual Strike was a fantastic game. Days of Ruin is better. Having integrated story and training missions is a fantastic addition, and makes the single player mode feel really deep.
I also find the story and characters more compelling. It still gets a bit cheezy on occasion, but if anything that's a nice reminder that this is still, just a war GAME.
Excellent game for anyone who enjoys tactical warfare game. The head to head multiplayer is also a welcome addition.
Advance Wars: Love is a Battle-Field May 28, 2008

I've been spending my time with three amazing titles: GTAIV, Portal and Advance Wars: Days of Ruin. The latter has proven more challenging than previous versions in the series. The mood is darker, the A.I. more cunning and the new units more diverse. If you like strategy in bite-sized doses, then I highly recommend this title.
