This War of Mine App Reviews

the game is just great !!! hours of awesome playtime! great work 11 bit!

This game is an essence of the soul changer. You have to try survive, feel all these moments and check yourself in difficult moments. This is not so easy, but you will not forget that!

I watched gameplay in youtube and it impressed me!! I decided to buy this game and I don’t regret. I’ve been playing this game for a few hours and I can barely break away from it. This is one of the addictive game. 11-bits Studio, well done, great job!

Really awesome game!

please update to 1.2 for mac

Being a Marine Engineer, Afghanistan, OEF 14, I’ve seen the destruction & chaos of war. From dealing with bombs to seeing the poverty caused by war. This game put me on the otherside of the story to where I could also feel the pain of war. The pain of having completely nothing. I recommend this game, I myself am not much of a strategic/survival gamer but this sure was worth the bucks.

I just wanted to let you know that this game is fantastic. If you EVER wanted to know what to do during a natural or man-made disaster, get your feet wet with this game. You can try and just scavenge and have other scavengers steal things back from you, if you do not have a reliable group that you work with. However, without giving anything away, I wished this game would be used with all of the future Fire Rescue, FEMA and Homeland Security students. It’s so much better than hearing from my Special Forces friends of how bad things can get in a jiffy, if you’re not prepared. Be aware, this game has some realistic features, that’s not for the faint at heart. It’s not the graphics, by any means, the art is beautifully done in this game, instead it’s like the old Alfred Hitchcock movies, where your imagination hooks you in and won’t let you go.

It is great game, I love the concept and the fexibilities the game has provided. If you are a Sim’s or GTA lover, I would highly recommend you give a try! However I understand what it might stop people from playing is the PRICE, cuz the company doesn’t have that much reputations as Sim’s or Rockstar, throw $19.99 maybe $$ for people. I would recommend you try to low the price and gain bigger market scale, ( I hope the company could see it, it is really a great game and great idea, I wish you could go much further than this )

I gave it 5 stars as it was a fun game with great grahpics but it does get boring fast. Also i had no crashes or glitches as some other have reported. I suppose those are fixed. I have an 2011 iMac.

will not install on late 2012 iMac with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB. Will install on my 2013 MacBook Air. giving it 2 stars until i can actually play it on a real computer.

Its hard to begin playing but its a awosome game to have it.

I don’t review many games, but this game really pulled me into the environment, and I really cared about what I was doing with my characters. I think there is a lot of room for playing the game at least 3-4 times. You can play and make real decisions like you probably would in RL, or you can do the opposite on another play through. I like it. Especially for the price.

Absolutely immersive. Wish there was even more depth for material types etc but I say that only as a Spoiled Fan of this game! What a job they have done to get you into the story and the REALITY OF WAR. Holy crap. It COULD HAVE BEEN BORING…somehow, don’t know how, they nailed it, or at least 90% would be the grade I give it!!

It’s an above average game, but its developers like this that make it difficult to continue buying games on the App store. It’s the same price on both the App store and Steam, but there’s two different updates that they haven’t released for the ios version…pretty big updates too. On to the game: It’s fun and dark, but lacks replayability for some very easily fixed reasons. Lack of REAL random events, lack of customization, and easily plateued game play. I’ve played through 3 times and while there are “random” events, they’re always the same, and almost in the exact same order. Promising events that add difficulty like getting sick are easily remedied, they always go from "slightly sick”, and then if you don’t do anything they become “sick”, and then “severely sick”. This 3-tier structure is consistent throughout the game and becomes far too predictable. It’d be awesome if there was more variety. This is kind of nerdy, but a game like this is begging for mods and more customization, or even an endless mode. There’s only 15 or so locations and they can become monotonous. Last, and perhaps the biggest drag, is this game is kind of a one trick pony. Once you get to the point of creating an uprgraded herb garden and have your two animal traps you can basically just coast until the end of the game because as long as you have food you’re basically fine unless you mess up.

This game was fun while it lastd. It did crash several times during gameplay, however it fun and WAY TO SHORT. The survival aspect was quite fun and I did get to a point of actually having a firearm during the final couple of days. This firearm added ZERO value to the game and I am a bit disappointed as to that aspect of gameplay. As I said quite fun, however it is way too short!

I bought this game based on the reviews I saw, and they captured the feel of the game accurately. It’s beautifully rendered, and the storylines have emotion. The game play was engaging. I agree with some reviewers that the games plateaus once you get past a certain point, and you can more or less coast to the end, but it took me a few tries to get there. I would have preferred to play on and try to take out some of the bad characters once you’re strong enough. All in all, it was a good purchase, and I’ll probably play through it again a time or two. I might have preferred to pay a little less considering that it took about 15 or 20 hours of gameplay to beat it, but it was generally worth the price compared to other avenues of entertainment. I hope to see updates soon!

Immersive, addicting, masterfully created, amazing…….. I don’t know how else to explain it. You are basically dropped in the middle of everything with no instruction…. and no tutorial. You must learn everything yourself, but it is not difficult to do so. The gameplay is flawless, easy to figure out. The game is hard, and at the same time, simple. This is a game of strategy. You must learn how to use everything to your advantage, how to remain stealthy when in dangerous situations. You must be wary of strangers, and careful to give away items that are essential to your survival. The game is so hard to put down because once you have got the basics, you will have been immersed in another world…….one of few survivors, danger at every corner, and a rebellion against a country’s government. No problems running the game on my MacBook Air. I have an i5 processor and 4 GB of RAM. Worthy of all 5 stars in my opinion. Not a game you want to pass up, even if the price is a little discouraging.

as soon as you get the hang of it this game is amazing. I’d say worth more like $30.

This game is great, but I am really dissapointed that the updates are unavailable on the app store. If I’d have know that beforehand, I’d have bought the game on steam! Please make those updates available here soon so that the game has more replay value!

For being a point and click survival game, it is extremely well done and insanely fun. It definitely shows just how bleak and terrible war is and puts you in the shoes of 3 characters who are just struggling to survive, and with that, comes extremely difficult decisions. I highly suggest giving this game a try, stick it out for the first few tries and you’ll get a hang of the mechanics and then its just pure fun.
