Wartile Review

Most strategy titles either choose to opt with turn-based combat or real-time combat. Wartile, though, chooses to mix the two. The result is a creative idea that unfortunately isn't executed well.In Wartile, you take control of units from a top-down perspective and give them orders on where to go. Once they see enemies in range, however, they begin attacking them in real-time.

WARTILE Review. Tabletop games are all the rage these days with shops full to the brim with turn-based and deck-building adventures of.

From this point forward, you have to activate special ability cards at timed intervals, which are like turns, in order to change how they engage foes. Like the gameplay mechanics, Wartile's presentation is completely unique. Unlike the gameplay, though, there's not a single thing wrong here.Where most titles choose to make their environments look realistic and immersive, this game instead opts to create a virtual tabletop gaming experience, Everything from mountains to trees looks as if they were carved by hand, and the play space in which the gameplay occurs is designed to look like a high quality Dungeons and Dragons board. Even the units look like board game pieces.As if that wasn't good enough, the music and sound effects are also amazing, too.

Wartile's score drives forward the action and makes the average gameplay feel more epic then it actually is, and it's always a treat to hear well done combat sounds like battle cries or blades clashing. Animations are also well done as well, and while some of them are a little choppy, it hardly takes away from the fun. Performance: Copious crashing, good otherwise. Wartile, for the most part, is a smoothly running game. There are very few issues with things like screen freezes, framerate drops, and things of that nature.However, there is one big problem: crashing. Before I could even get the game to launch, I had to spend a painful two hours trying to get Wartile to stop crashing at the main menu.

No types of fixes were working, and I was about to put my fist through my monitor. Thankfully, it finally started working for an unknown reason, and I was able to play through it.This doesn't seem to be a common issue, but I don't really see that as a valid excuse. The fact this happened to me (someone with more than the recommended level of hardware) means that it could very well happen for you, too.

When for the N64 outsold every other football game on the console last year, you can bet everyone took notice. Other football game makers added arcade elements to their sim games.

Gamers that couldn't get into the strongside coverage and play action fakes found in football sims, had an easy time getting into the fast pace and simple mechanics of Midway's arcade conversion.

It might be a good idea to hold on buying this game for now and seeing if there are any patches that address this in the future. Wartile for PC conclusionWhile Wartile is a gorgeous and beautifully sounding game, the lack of challenge or depth in its gameplay and the risk of severe crashing problems holds it back from being something greater.
