Fun:
I have logged 30 hours with this game. I do not think I will ever play Advance Wars DS again. An amazing array of units, buildings and research options all come together seamlessly. An experienced strategy gamer cannot play this game without falling in love with its meticulous attention to detail. The missions provided with the game are very challenging. For example, the Joan of Arc tutorial provides a map where you lift the seige of Orleans by destroying 3 castles. I quickly used ranged units to destroy an English castle near the city. The english respond by sending in another eight mounted Knights! Since I only had weak ranged units they were quickly defeated. I had to restart the mission and capture nearby mills before I attacked the castles. The mills allowed me to create stronger units to fight off the surprises waiting for me later. The ingame library provides a history of all the characters, kingdoms and units in the game. A three phase custom game setup, provides the player with a multi-part toolset to give hours of entertainment. You get 25 victory points for every AI opponent you beat. So, if you decide to take on 3 AI opponents at once, you'll get 75 points if you win. The AI does have programming weaknesses. Keep in mind that you are playing on a battery operated computer. The processing power required for a better AI is simply not available. The points can be redeemed to unlock more maps and special characters. Pros: 1) Library of medieval history was fun to read. 2) Exciting soundtrack 3) Rich graphics 4) No need to use stylus! 5) Large selection of maps 6) Highly Replayable! 7) Indepth tutorial mode, no need to open manual 8) The game is an exceptional value at $30. Cons: 1) The game did lock up once. 2) No custom map building.
