The reason I like it is because its wwii and it has cool old wwii tank men and vehicle and most of all I love strategy


Superb Tactical Tank Battle

Awcowa

Tank Battles North Africa is one of the best if not the best tank tactical games for the iPad. It provides a full array of units such as infantry, bazookas, artillery, a variety of light armor and of course a variety of Tanks! And the graphics are wonderful! Game play is simple yet offers you a rich variety of options to execute your plans and the AI is also a challenging opponent. If you enjoyed Tank Battles 1944, you enjoy North Africa even more with the improved game mechanics. The biggest improvement is the ability to move and shoot. And if you have played 1944. Keep in mind that vegetation in North Africa provides no defensive value. Game designers felt desert vegetation was not dense enough to provide protection. Some units still need to be tweaked. Especially when vehicles and light tanks attack bunkers. Damage by these vehicles is unrealistic ally light which can be frustrating, unless you are at point blank range. Over use of Panzer 1 and Tiger tanks. However, these are minor annoyances. Over all Tank Battles is an excellent game. Those who enjoy WWII history will find units to be for the most part to historically accurate in appearances of the time and in combat abilities. But for those who don't know much about WWII will still find this an enjoyable and challenging tactical tank game. Tank Battles North Africa is worthy of its 5 star rating.


Fun casual wargame

If you are interested in wargaming on a casual level -- which doesn't rely on extensive bookkeeping and multi-phase turns -- then this app is a solid value. For WWII-themed, squad-level tactical gameplay, this is as good as it gets on iPhone.


Addicting Game!

Overall, it is a pretty fun game to play. Some of the levels are impossible to get three stars when on the "hard" setting, but that does not detract from the general enjoyment. Would be nice if the makers came out with some more different types of games other than a WWII tank setting like a naval game.


Nice follow up to the first game!

I played through TB1944 with great enjoyment and NA offers more terrain features, lots of new units and the tactical feature flanking bonus. This makes it useful to get behind the enemy unit and crowd it, to get full leverage from the units. It's also very satisfying to attack a target from behind, see it spin, as in surprise, then attack it from the front and see it spin again, knowing I got an attack bonus. Also, many units can move then shoot. Finally, some infantry can mount into trucks and thus move a lot faster to get to the front, another good feature. All in all, highly recommended! I've played through all the campaigns and I'm currently on my second in-game purchase campaign. I feel, now with a little more experience playing the game, that it's a little easier than TB1944. In that game, one or two missions seemed near impossible. In North Africa, I feel they got the balance just right meaning it's a ton of fun to be challenged early in the mission and then feel the tide turning slowly until the enemy is completely eradicated. A few missions I had to play through a couple of times to win and to me, that's the right balance. I always play on "hard" so that is where all my experience is from.


Old school fun.

This is an excellent hex-based game that rivals the best of the old Avalon Hill games.


Best Game Since Panzer General

Look I'm not a big gamer and the movement toward 1st person shooters holds little interest for me, but strategic games, learning unit strengths and capacities, I always enjoyed that. Still do, and when I discovered this game Tank Battle North Africa I am hooked. Of course I am a lame player and have only managed to beat the computer at 'casual' but have started to win at the mid-level. Very good fun.


Great line of games!

Kurtmadrid

I love the tank battle series, all greatly formulated stratify games with fantastic gameplay, great graphics and ww2 models. I've beaten them all to the deepest hardest of levels, and I'm still enjoying it, thank you for creating them! I can't wait for eastern front 1945, and I also really enjoy 2 player, please do more with it!


Great!

Big bicky boy

Excellent game

Carverdon

This is the best turn-based strategy war game on the iPad, and possibly on any computer platform. Love it!
