Totally Accurate Battle Simulator

During the first three hours I laughed, zoomed in often to watch the ridiculous action closely, and made o ton of screenshots. However, halfway through the monotonous campaign I was completely fed up with the game’s repetitiveness, tired of its lame AI and annoyed by its poor physics.

TABS makes me feel like a dad on the front of a 1970s boxed game, Mousetrap or Battleship or whatever, clean-shaven in his v-neck pullover, bursting with paternal excellence. But unlike those games, TABS is constantly being updated and expanded, with new eras and new units and new puzzles. It’s something we can go back to, again and again. It’s like a little engine for funny narratives. My boy and I enjoy recollecting old war stories of battles won and lost, or positing fantastical potential conflicts between bizarre combinations.
