Great Little War Game 2 App Reviews

As an old C&C addict, the GxWG series has provided countless hours of contemporary fun on lunch breaks, at stoplights and on the couch. This incarnation is just as much fun, if in a more limited way. Unlike its predecessors, GLWG2 features shorter, easier (Shall we say "Bite-sized?") missions and no additional content such as skirmishes. As such, I find myself nearly at the end in just a few hours. But boy, have those hours been fun. New in this version are immediate earnings from a well when you capture it, updated targeting graphics and essentially a blend of the best features from the first two games. Missions alternate rhythmically between targeting the enemy HQ and eliminating the enemy general. The Battle Points system is changed into a more general upgrade system, requiring some assets to be "unlocked" first using points. Subsequent upgrades are progressively more expensive, but yield undefined benefits. Gone are the coveted reductions in purchase price in favor of vague attack/defense upgrades. Gone also are some elements that slowed down gameplay in prior versions. If GBWG reduced the time eaten up by your dereks as they cha-ching! your earnings each round, GLWG2 eliminates the delay entirely. Also gone are the intro screens with the lovable General. Perhaps the nicest surprise is the inclusion of the option between portrait and legacy-landscape orientation. You can even turn the screen during gameplay. All in all, Im happy to have new missions to enjoy in a new way. Thanks Rubicon!

Lot of great features are gone, game crashes and Im not able to play any more!!! This is not okay to pay for

They made it too easy, no longer fun with out any suspense ( ie the fog is gone). also game crashes in middle of campaign #21 and wont go farther. poor excuse for a sequel.

nice second game, manual difficult level, smooth graphic, but fix 1 mil. achievement, and remove in menu button "restore purchase"

Lacks multiplayer...if it had multiplayer I would say it would be 10 out of 5

Loved the first game, thought the second was okay but this is terrible. The maps are super small, with absolutely no challenge to them. No skirmish option. Not worth paying for.

Love your games. I have to turn my brightness way up to play this on my iPad Air 2. Hope its something u can fix. Other apps brightness is fine. She. Fixed this will get 5 stars

No supply, no turrets, no medic/supply stations, only one guy to take over a structure, super-small maps, no multiplayer. Oh, and no comic cut-scenes/story to the campaign, either. Really sad sequel. :-(

No matter how much I adjust the brightness, this game is almost unplayable. I can still play, its just not fun straining my eyes

Its like you are playing night missions. Im using an iPhone 6, and it looks like a great game but its unplayable due to it being so dark. Please fix this!

Other poor reviews are correct. I loved the first game so I bought it without reading them. That wont happen again.

Save your money. The first two games (GLWG and GBWG) were terrific.. so I purchased this without a second thought. The maps are very (VERY) small, most can be conquered in under 6 days (on advanced difficulty). There is no longer any fog of war. Really boring and a terrible sequel. No multiplayer or additional scenarios.. once you run thought the campaign youre done.

Why would they do this ... Terribleness... Dont they want to make money? I dont get it

Greedy developers playing the "rip off the loyal customer" game! Utterly minor graphic improvements, unexplainably dark maps, tiny maps. Laaaaaaazy and greedy attempt at a sequel. Save your money for honest developers. Diiiiiiiiiiirty business plan.

The first versions were so fun to play so getting version 2 was automatic. Unfortunately I have lost my faith in Rubicon as this seems like a beta version or something. No multiplayer, no storyline, weak levels, small maps...sooo disappointing! Dont spend your money! Shame on you Rubicon

On lvl 32 its quite 4 times around turn 7-9. Making me have to restart... Lame I dont even want to play any more cause of that. Sweet til now.

Having loved the first I too purchased this one instantly. Ouch! Horrible - money ought to be refunded to all those that paid for this game. This is more like another said, a beta test version with all of the best parts of the first version removed. Complete rip-off.

Its not even close to originals .

It needs multiplayer badly please fix this!!!!!

This one is just too easy. Plain and simple. Its about as difficult as checking boxes. Why they dont release an update and change the difficulty level is beyond me. Give us a challenge!
