Advance Wars: Dual Strike is overall a good game. There are some good points and some bad points[more good points]. The game is about this place called Omega land. There is a bad country called ''Black Hole'' that is taking over the place. Then the other four coutries[Orange Star,Blue Moon,Yellow Comet, and Green Earth] form an alliance against Black Hole. In the game you command your forces to attack,defend or whatever you want them to do.
The graphics isnt the best high light of the game but there okay. All of it is a map with pictures on it. Intelligent Systems did pretty good with the fight scenes and the COs[commanding officer] some parts of the graphics are good and some parts are not
I love the soundtack on this game. It is one of the best game soundtracks I have ever heard. Each CO has different theme songs[most are good]. The only thing that is disapointing is that there is no voice. I don't really blame Intelligent Systems though because there are so many COs and they say a lot of things.
When you are playing a battle this is what you usually do. Some times you start with units and sometimes you dont. What you mainly want to do is to beat the enemy[duh], but to do that you need to capture cities. Cities give you more money each day and with more money you can buy more and stronger units. You can also capture com. Towers and missle silos. At bases you can buy infantry, tanks,and artillery. At airports you can buy fighters,bombers,and bombs. And at ports you can buy battleships,submarines,ant aircraft carriers.
There is so many stuff to do. You can do story mode,warroom[battles],verses,survival mode[money,turns,and time] ,combat mode,and multiplayer. There is so many maps you can buy. Multiplayer is also pretty good. In combat mode you actually get to control the person/vehicle and you actually get to pull the trigger yourself. And you get money from wining battles so you can buy stuff at a store. At the store you can buy extra maps and you can also buy stuff to make the COs different colors.
Overall this game rocks. It takes patience though. You can't just keep wining battles. Sometimes you lose which is ok because you learn fom your mistakes. Om some levels it took me 5 tries before I beat them. If you want this game but you don't have a DS I would advise you to get it for this game.
