Battlecruisers – Strategy Game Review
Battlecruisers is a Strategy game from Mecha Weka Limited, first launched in 4th February 2021.
It’s rated 9+ and currently has 350+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Battlecruisers Stand Out
Step aboard your ultimate floating fortress in Battlecruisers, the visually striking RTS praised for its explosive gameplay, minimalist hand-drawn art, and delightfully addictive soundtrack. Oh, and nukes.
Command your colossal Battlecruiser as you strategically build and deploy autonomous units: Turrets, Gunships, Artillery, AttackBoats, GatlingMortars, SiegeDestroyers, and SteamCopters. Your fleet self-operates, freeing you to focus purely on strategic decisions. Accelerate construction by deploying more BuilderDrones, racing your opponents to unleash devastating Ultraweapons and dominate quick, intense battles.
Embark on an award-winning single-player campaign as Charlie, an amusingly reckless utility-bot whose joyride aboard the UAC Presidentron’s prized Battlecruiser spirals into chaos. Survive increasingly sophisticated waves of AI warships, cunning mercenaries, and colossal adversaries determined to reclaim the stolen superweapon.
Dive into endless multiplayer mayhem, unlocking new weapons each year and customizing your fleet with cosmetic Bodykits, Exoskeleta, and hilarious Heckles—perfect for taunting friends and foes alike. Premium Mode offers ad-free gameplay and unlocks two turbocharged game modes. All in-app purchases are purely cosmetic; victory is solely dependent on your tactical genius.
Winner of multiple game design awards, Battlecruisers boasts a 90%+ positive rating and is humorously deemed "prutty good" by your typical Kiwi.
No ads. Just explosive battles and strategic mayhem.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The game is fun and has a reasonable learning curve up to level 4. That ends at level 5, we cannot beat Huntress. Every attempt ends in stalemate. There is no way to best the opponent. They have what you have and that's a lot. You build a aircraft factory they build SAM missile batteries. They build artillery, you build shields. We don't know why there isn't a time limit on levels. It'll just let you mindlessly throw things at each other till your phone battery dies. And we are not spending a lot of money on a phone app. So if that's the idea here, we would like a dev to tell us that the objective is to get frustrated players hitting impossible walls, to spend money. That way we can delete this app off our phone. Otherwise your "tutorial" leaves everything to be desired.
We feel like it needs more levels we beat the game in 3 days.
This is such a good game we mean it is really great there are no ADS other than the funny about the game ADS that arent real ads but still its a great game we need more of this we wish other game creators and app creators werent so greedy for money and limited apps without paying so you guys did a great job making this game. Even apple loves you guys we found this game. BeAcuse apple AppStore had it as. A must play game keep it up and keep working hard.
This game is honestly amazing like the story is good, the graphics are good, and dude the splash and sinking animations are the BEST we swear and it requires strategy. Id reccomend this for people who want to improve their strategic thinking and want to have fun at the sametime.
Its an actual good game thats not a pay to win micro transaction bundle we are shocked. We never leave reviews but this game was so much fun.
Did you play this game before making it available? No you didnt. Theres a huge bug and we aint telling you. More Issues. All the AI does is build a seafactory and make siege destroyer. We mean, that is all doesnt build any thing else during the game. Do you guys ever play this game for yourself? Update: Why am we always facing a Yeti Strider in PvP.
We updated the game to the latest update. Our money is gone. Our skin wont save. And PVP is offline.
Great game, Awesome graphics, BIG BOOMS, but for some reason the game doesnt work. Sure, you can pvp, and you can use the shop, but AI fights dont load. Please fix this.
Anyone who likes using destroyer when you have a sea factory is a dimwit.
The game needs an update on the campaign or a new game because we completely finished the game. But the game is still good.
Super fun good story kinda funny all without being pay to win or slamming you either adds.
What are the major differences between STEAM and Mobile versions or is it just batter gameplay.
Seriously go buy this on steam too, amazing game.
This is a fantastic game, with fast paced but intuitive combat and a fun storyline. It used to freeze constantly, but they fixed it.
Literally the best mobile game, no exaggeration, amazing ost, fun gameplay, not too hard, yet not too easy and very good community.
The game is vewy gud, gives us vibes! The background when you are in the battle is amazing, really satisfying.
The only slight problem is that the drones will prefer to build more than one station at a time rather than one at a time (which is faster) but other than that there really isnt anything to be mad about this game, it avoids almost all the pitfalls of most mobile games we.e overloading the game with adds, being overly competitive, being un fair to free players, and etc. If we could we might just consider buying the full version of the game which is saying something for a free to play mobile game.
Mecha weka limited, your off to a good start we really enjoy this game tho prime is overpowered overall amazing game thanks.
Great game but after you get to 4th level impossible to win any games.
This game is not an add spammer we mean like yeah it does give adds but theyre joke adds, have you ever seen that before? The developers deserve the game of the year award for this, its fun and Ive played like less than an hour and we can see ourselves playing this more than clash of clans of retro bowl.
Love this game, incredibly addicting. The story was amazing and did a great job of teaching you how to play as well as not overwhelming you by slowing giving you one or two new items at a time. Multiplayer is very fun but hard to get games, just wish they had an active player counter to know if it was worth trying to get a match.
Its fun enough until you get to the levels made 3-5x harder than the others so youll buy premium.
This is one of the most fun and entertaining games Ive played in a while. The humor and thought that went into the creation of this game deserves a 5 star review. We dont normally post reviews, but this is worthy of a post. Good job.
If you like this game download redcon its fun too.
Great game fun to play if you like to be addicted.
This game is very easy to understand and it is very fun. The dialogue is funny and the game manages to keep a story going. The ads are not annoying and technically arent even ads, theyre all just funny jokes. Our only wish from this game is some more campaign levels but other than that this game is awesome.
Some times the drone would just spread out to build randomly instead of finishing each modules in the order youve placed them. This is a real problem when constructing the drone stations, as building multiple stations at a time will always be slower than finishing one before starting the next, because you would have the drones from the station youve just built to speed up construction. It forces you to micro-manage and its just frustrating how this has to be done every time Rework the drone control and this game would really shine.
Game consistently freezes at loading screens causing us to have to close and reopen, sometimes happening 3+ times before game will actually load. Other than that, fun game.
This game is super fun and unique, but it is basically unplayable with the amount of freezes and crashs that occur.
We honestly like the game but we cant play it because it crashes and when we try to reload it soft locks on loading. Restarting our phone does not fix it. Please fix so we can play.
This game is very fun and interesting, we really do like every single little aspect of this game. It has so much potential but the biggest problem Im facing is that the game freezes on the loading screen after a match or when the loading screen shows up. It gets annoying but we still want to play this amazing game. Plz dev, we hope you can fix this bug so it doesnt ruin your amazing work.
First off, this game is amazing. Every aspect of it is fun and rewarding. Theres no ads and you can tell the dev team loves their fan base with the quality of work they deliver. However, this game is almost unplayable. Im playing on an iPhone 14 and nearly every other battle we just get soft locked on the loading screen. The sound still works but everything just freezes. The only fix is to uninstall and reinstall the game, PRAYING that you will be able to play more than one level before the bug happens again. Please fix developers. This is such an amazing game but we cannot deal with this bug any longer and lose more progress.
Twice now, we have been soft locked due to the game not progressing past the loading screen before a battle. The game is super fun and greatly designed but it is annoying raving to reinstall it due to this bug.
An addictive game that is very fun! And has some pretty good comedic elements! Remember to put a password on your wifi.
This game is the closest game Ive ever seen to perfect, no ads? Love it. Humorous? Precious. Our favorite part? Big explosions. Its a game that has nothing to do with pay to win and has a wonderful lore. Plus, their discord community is so cool and chill, really wish we discovered this game long time ago. For the devs, keep up the good work.
We wish they added a ground mode or another game of this where you fight on ground and not in the seas.
One of the best mobile games ive ever played. Amazing plot, absolutely beautiful visuals, not to mention no ads. These absolute geniuses put FAKE ADS that tell you IN GAME LORE instead. We never write reviews but this deserves 5 stars.
This is one of our favorite games! However, we noticed a glitch. Sometimes after you delete something, the game glitches out and doesnt let you build anything. And even weirder, it lets you delete your enemies builds! Despite the occasional bugs, we love the game, and look forward to seeing where it goes.
We love this game. Everything about it; art, function, characters, etc. It is a masterpiece and quickly became our favorite game. There is one problem though. Its not anything big, and we dont want to sound dumb, but it is quite challenging. We know it is supposed to be and we like that but prime huntress is absolutely over powered. Overall, this game is just amazing.
It is and outstanding game and soooooo much fun BUT there needs to be less time spent loading.
Did you just change the owner from Mecha Weka Limited to Pre-Showdown Rumbles when we just updated the game.
Where did you get this suit?we looked for it for a long time, but we couldn't find it. Ask for a reply>-<.
This game is one of the few mobile games that we think are worth playing, the constant gameplay loop keeps you intrigued and the story and concept of the game is unique like any other! Also each robot and background is very cool and interesting, the backgrounds have so much character and the exoskeletons are so different and have their own personality, a great game to play.
The first problem is that the game is too short there isnt enough levels second problem the game is too easy we have nothing else to say.
Dear game devs we love this game we really do, but when we looked at the computer version, theres a big update for it so we went to look at this version. No update please make the computer update for mobile to because we love this game Ive been waiting for new stuff to do. Please add it onto mobile love this game and we would like to do more with it so please add it onto mobile. Thank you.
We are impressed with the seamless, flawless game play as well as the crisp clean graphics. Thank you for the wonderful game. Im looking to see if you have any more titles out there.
It is a game with a relatively short story, but its humor and character amply makes up for it.
This game is the best but it needs a multi player and a sandbox mod were the player puts guns on both ships.
We wish this was just a test version because they could add like online 1v1 and more content for a new version but we would still highly recommend this app.
Really enjoying it, we do agree at the beginning if feels very limiting to what you should build, it almost feels like a puzzle game. But as you keep going and you realize things that it did not teach you and should have that it becomes a little better. We believe there should be a tutorial that goes into targeting and what a mast slot is. We cant seem to figure it out. Figured it out and definitely a five star game.
