Ratings and reviews

Great digital representation of Hex/war game! I work in "the field" a lot and love old school war physical games. I found few that translate this well into digital format. Either too often cartoonish animations and "fancy pants" graphics or just really poorly designed. Hex of Steel is really just what I want. Enough detail and game sense like I am playing ony kitchen table. Very happy with continued development and updates and plays great on my old phone lol.

Pardon the pun, but ALOT of bang for the buck here! Stand alone sceniors,many campaigns really cool units graphics 4 AI difficulty, some design decisions I don't agree with though, far as I can tell it's impossible to know when a game is unbeatable coz there's no turn limits. By far my favorite strategy game of its type! 10 of 10* for sure!

Fun and challenging. Game is very similar to the old Panzer General but with a better AI. There's still a few things I wish could be changed but all in all an excellent design. There is somewhat of a learning curve, at least on the mobile app, but the developers are good at responding to questions and concerns. In my view, this game and the series by Joni Nuttinen are the only decent WW2 games for Android at the moment. Keep up the good work! Update--Game could use some better refined scenarios
