WARGROOVE

go.macworld.com/wg

We haven’t seen a new Advance Wars game in over a decade, and

Wargroove makes no attempt to hide the fact that it exists to fill that gap. It

looks like Advance Wars. It plays a lot like it. And if you’ve never played

that wonderful turn-based tactics series, Wargroove ($19.99) is a fine

substitute. Most levels involve either sacking the enemy’s base or defeat-

ing their commander, and the large maps often make this a challenge. It’s a

game that rewards smart thinking, whether it’s through amassing resources

or well-timed uses of special abilities that can, say, call skeletons into battle

or heal surrounding troops.
