The Ultimate Turn Based WWII Strategy Experience On Phone and Tablet

▶ IMPORTANT: Hex of Steel is a graphically intensive game. For the best experience, especially in the largest scenarios, we recommend using a device with a strong GPU/CPU. Devices from 2017 onward, like the iPhone X, should handle these scenarios smoothly. However, all devices can access the extensive campaign mode and engage in thrilling multiplayer battles. ◀

Worth every penny. Reminds me of the times when I bought everything SSI used to put out on PC. Layers of detail, it's obvious how much effort went into this. I have one gripe, a few smaller mobile friendlier maps would be great. The larger maps take so long to do a turn that even playing a few turns on my phone becomes a huge battery drain. Otherwise it's a phenomenal game

Overall, fabulous game. I have noticed a few flaws however. The computer player tends to be able to do some fun things tho. Naval units somehow replenish in the ocean, whereas your own ships need to be in port to do so. Makes the game harder than it needs to be. On the whole however, this very much reminds me of the old SSI Panzer General series. It was very well worth the purchase.

This is a very deep and involved strategy game that can please enthusiasts of such things. However the mobile version is, in my opinion, not great. It needs at least a tablet to be playable, especially if you don't have excellent eyesight. Very hard to see things especially in places like the Build screen where icons you must click are just a few pixels large. The manual is "meh". The Tutorial is useless. You will need to watch YouTube videos to learn how to play. I recommend the Steam version.

This game is a real disappointment, for it could have been first rate, save for one exasperating limitation: no more than one unit can be placed on a single hex. This makes it impossible to concentrate forces and leads to a ridiculous logjam of units. If the author could rectify this, the game could become one of the very best mobile wargames. As it stands, it is very mediocre.
