Luc Bernard’s Advance Wars-like real-time strategy title Mecho Wars ($4.99) has been released, and is now available for purchase through the iTunes App Store.
Mecho Wars will be instantly familiar to fans of Nintendo’s portable RTS series. Movement and troop positioning takes place from an overhead perspective, while battles between units shift to a close-up side view. Unlike many other titles in the genre, however, Mecho Wars avoids the expected military-themed aesthetic in favor of a unique fantasy setting and a cast of animal-like creatures.
Mecho Wars also includes a day-night cycle that affects gameplay — bodies of water will freeze and become traversable overnight, adding new layers of strategic options for battles that extend past midnight.
Mecho Wars has earned a solid App Store response so far, achieving a review score average of four-and-a-half stars in its first weekend of release. A gameplay trailer is below.
