What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players praise Warside as a solid Advance Wars-style strategy game with addictive gameplay, creative mechanics like improved capturing and transport units, and a level editor that extends replayability. However, opinions sharply divide on difficulty balancing—some find most levels too easy even on hard difficulties, while others find the AI punishingly unfair and the experience frustrating rather than strategically engaging, with complaints about overpowered enemy CO powers, limited unit diversity in optimal strategies, and pacing issues with dialogue and combat speed.

I really like the base game, its fun, and doesn't have any glaring issues. But, that being said, I felt like the campaign was a bit cringy, also I felt like there could have been some more units with naval and air, it felt way to rock paper scissor for those two elements.

Solid little game and well worth the coin. Would definitely like to see some sort of anti-armour infantry added... but I believe the devs have indicated it's coming!

Warside is such a good game, it reminds me so much of Advance Wars and I hope they continue to keep the game in this style! I do have a few issues with it though, I cannot move the camera with WASD and can only do so with the mouse which causes some visibility issues on larger maps, but I can live with this downside for now, I just hope there's either a mod for it or they add it in the future. Another issue I see is not being able to resupply infantry at cities, Like, What do you mean I can't enlist more people at the nearby city in order to replenish my lost infantry? I understand not being able to resupply trucks or tanks at a city but standard infantry should be allowed to replenish there. :\ Also I may only be a few levels in the campaign but I like the idea of custom units that stray away from the normal Advance Wars tactics, like the Rhino being able to push units which always will give me a laugh! This game is fun offline or online fun, I only have one friend who has the game for online though and we don't talk much :( Blake if you're reading this, Ya wanna play a round?

Wanted to love it. It's still worth it to support the advance wars spirit
Not recommended Sep 9, 2026
Look, it's a "Promising" return to formula for those that enjoy games like Wargroove, and Advance Wars. But just the poor launch, consistent bugs, and the absense of certain promised features: (Passive Abilities!!!!), with now the desert wasteland that is few and far between content drops. It just be a better bang for your buck to go play Advance Wars by Web (Just me though).
Recommended Sep 4, 2026
I enjoy this game. I love the new maps players build to play. I just wish there was a little more control like can be had when playing advanced wars in VS. Mode.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
