WARNO Critic Reviews

WARNO is a great World War III strategy game. It takes the best elements of previous titles created by Eugen Systems and expands on them. Battles are realistic but also fun. The five Army General campaigns will keep a fan engaged for tens of hours. Multiplayer is robust, with a variety of maps and divisions to choose from. The game looks good, and the soundtrack is fantastic. The way maps are picked for Army general battles needs to be tweaked and, of course, there’s plenty of balancing for units and divisions to be done. WARNO will appeal primarily to players who already like Wargame or Steel Division but any strategy fan interested in alternate Cold War history should also pick it up.

WARNO doesn't go easy on the player (especially if you are not a veteran of RTS games), but its depth and all the choices it has to offer can be extremely satisfying.

Eugen Systems studio finally listened to the fans, let go of the World War II and created what is probably the definitive form of its vision of a tactical game about a conventional world war III. Will this be enough to keep the title of leader in its niche? Time will tell, after the success of Wargame there is no shortage of imitators, and WARNO is taking no risks to surprise with something new.

There's not a whole lot in Warno's Early Access version yet, but what's there is actually fun and prompts genuine anticipation.
