About this product

Product Information

Nintendo's turn-based military strategy series continues with Advance Wars: Days of Ruin. As the ominous subtitle suggests, the game takes place on a ravaged Earth with civilization teetering on the brink of despair. Meteorites have all but wiped out modern-day conveniences and amenities, with the tattered remnants of two former superpowers vying for control. One vows to protect Earth's survivors, while the other intends on finishing them off. In addition to a bleaker setting filled with sepia toned cut-scenes, Days of Ruin offers four-player online support via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Solo commanders can embark on a story-driven campaign spanning 26 missions, gradually unlocking additional training missions as well as map editor for custom scenarios.

    Peak of turn-based military unit combat design

    I'm a professional game designer, and this series of games is just beautifully designed, perhaps the peak of turn-based combat with its own fantasy story but a great tie-in to real world military units, roughly from WW2 to the 1960's. The opponent AI is best of class in this particular final version "Days of Ruin", the enemies are much more challenging than in previous versions.

    The worst in the series

    They took away all the charm and fun from Advance Wars in this one. They even made the game mechanics slightly worse. Decent storyline.

  • A Fantastic Game!!!

    Proving that change can be quite good, Nintendo's long running portable turn-based strategy series Advance Wars gets a fresh coat of paint with Advance Wars: Days of Ruin. Taking a more mature themed storyline, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin still features pretty much the same tried and true gameplay that fans of the series will come to expect and will be quite easy for them to pick up and play. Besides a more mature themed storyline, Days of Ruin also features a more comic-style artistic design scheme and a less cartoony feel to it as well, making it a pleasure to look at as well as play. Sadly, the Shop that was in previous installments of the series has been done away with, but what we get instead is some spectacular multiplayer and Wi-Fi options that only up the replay value even more ...

  • Nice Changeup in the Series

    The Advance Wars series is a fantastic game. If you enjoy turn-based strategic games, it offers hundreds of hours of depth. It is also the kind of game you can play while being distracted because you can look away from the screen at any time and not lose a life or take any other game consequences. Days of Ruin added experience levels for each unit. New unites include motorcycles for faster movement to capture cities, Flares to reveal terrain in fog, the anti-tank, Dusters, Seaplanes, and Gunboats. Improved units include battleships that can move and fire, and the Rig which can build temporary bases (formerly APC). Finally, there are a host of new bosses and abilities, plus all the missions are new.

  • Dig out of the Ruin and claim victory

    I was skeptic about this game since the entire cast was replaced from the hit Advance Wars series. We all came to love the old casts of heroes and villains. So I started playing this game thinking that it won't be that engaging. Was I wrong! It's got great graphics - no more "cartoonish" looking characters. All the sprites, artwork, etc. have been updated and looked great on the DS. It has a very engaging story line. And the villains...let's say that they really are "villains". You'll have fun clobbering them (and be challegned at the same time). There are some features missing from the game like "Battle Maps" which makes the game a little shorter (timewise) compared to the predecessors but it's fun nonetheless. It's a must for the fans of the series. Even if you're not a fan, it would be ...
