What Makes Legion War Stand Out
Legion War is a turn-based tactic strategy game, brought to you from Bear&Cat Studio. In this fantastic magic world, can you lead your legion to survive from enemies' challenge and write your legendary?
If you are interested in turn-based strategy games, SLG(Simulation) games, 4X games or strategy games like Advanced War, Ancient Empires, Lost Frontier and Civilization, you will be like this game.
Features:
>Units & Legion
Currently we have 4 major legions human, undead, steam and wild. Each major legion contains 9unique units. And we also have a neutral ocean legion with 4 units. Every unit has different attribute and some of them have its own combat skill or passive skill. There is a unique upgrade route for each unit, upgrading a unit will make it become much more powerful and useful.
>Campaign
We have 5 well-designed campaigns along with each legion, more than 50 levels in total.
Units are being introduced in each level. Each level has a main task and three secondary goals to give extra bonuses if achieved. Complete level will give you some game currency which you can use to upgrade your units permanently.
>Skirmish
In skirmish-game you can set up your own rules and challenge AI players in various balanced game map.
>Multiplayer
You can play online game with your friend or other players. You can have a fair skirmish battle or a co-op custom campaign with others.
>Map Editor
Create your own maps and campaigns by in-game editor. You can share your maps to other players and you can also download variety maps & campaigns from our server.
>Game AI
The AI for our game has been designed for a long time. The performance of Game AI is different in each Difficulty. It has the ability to evaluate the situation of current battle, recruit the right units to counter your attack force, make attack plan and optimize actions of each unit.

Terrain is a basic element in turn-based tactics game. We have 8 different terrains – land, forest, hill, mountain, swamp, bridge, water and reef. Each terrain has its own modifier of attack, defense and movement cost.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Ive tried every Advance Wars / Fire Emblem type of game we could find. Nothing touches this game. Great interface, features and graphics. And most importantly its not a ripoff like 95% of the games you see. Praise God.
Playing for about a week so far love it Tried to log in and make an account No luck apparently no combination of Letters or numbers works for there definition Of a Character or English words.
This is the type of game Ive been searching for. Kudos to the developers and please keep up the good work. Love it.
With all of the ideas this game has it made us fall in love in a instance. Yet custom game stood out to us and made us stay with the game. With that also came a problem. We just wasnt happy with really four factions to function with. To make the game more fun would be to add more factions to play with.
Campaign is varied and super fun. Lots of races. Ui and interface are well executed. No ads. No paywall. You can buy gems but you dont need to. Finished the game without needing. Bought something just to support the developer. Would love to see more campaigns, mix the races and possibly use a preset hero. Not sure what the hall is for. Well over 40 hrs.
This is a great strategy game. We played on the plane for hours because it does nor require internet connections. Very well balanced troop. The only problem with this game we have is when we play on the iPad is that when we rest our palm on the iPad it would sometime skip to next turn because of the button location. We with they have a next turn confirmation or put next turn button higher.
So this game seems really fun at first. That is until you get to further levels. What is the point of a game where the enemy can spawn endless reinforcements? It gets so boring we havent finished a match since the first couple levels. We honestly dont get it.
How frustrating to be at the end of winning a battle and the app freezes on you! This Has happened to us three times already in the past week.
We love little turn based games and this is a solid game.
Now that we've been playing for a while we feel like we can give some meaningful feedback. The graphics are cute and the game is fun and polished with a surprising amount of depth. The classes are mostly balanced and really diverse. With that said, here are some things that could be improved: – More/different music and sound effects. Every unit with the exception of archers makes the same sound when they die, even units from different classes. – A story mode. The campaign is just random levels with no rhyme or reason. It would be nice if each class had some kind of a backstory. – A better level-up/upgrade system. The 3 upgrade choices being completely random each time means you can't plan 2 upgrades ahead or adapt to the situation. Also, some upgrades are really underwhelming (Special protection) while others are overpowered (Lifesteal). – Animated sprites. We know it would be a lot of work but even a simple 2 frame animation for unused units would make the game feel more alive. – The ability to see where certain status effects came from. The ability to see your own unit's movement range after you've ended its turn, the way you can see the enemy's. Aside from those, sometimes damage is calculated incorrectly when one of the units has a percentage buff (either that, or we simply don't understand the calculation formula, would be nice to have it documented in-game). Anyway great game, we've spent a lot of time on it already, hope to see more in the future.
This is a fantastic turn based strategy game. Lots of reply value and the developer is continually dialing in equality between different characters. The pricing structure is great too – no pay to win type scenarios. Leveling up characters is paced very well.
We played tons of SLG games on different platforms. This is what a mobile light SLG game should be. Turn based, auto save each turn, different and balanced fractions, mostly offline with one online mode, global unit upgrades, in-game unit level up, hero units, custom game, custom map… You do everything right. Bravo! Can't wait for more races adding to the current five.
Nice little turn based game. The rounds last long enough to make it interesting but not too long as to make you bored. Your characters level up with each round and unlock some interesting abilities (they don't seem to carry on between each new mission however) So far we haven't NEEDED to purchase anything to keep gameplay interesting- and there are no ads… One of the few games that seems to do that these days.
The developers of this game did a really good job with this one, it is exactly what we were looking for in a mobile device game. Graphics are smooth and aesthetically pleasing, controls are intuitive, and the skill ranges from fairly easy to incredibly hard allowing a player of any skill level to enjoy some play. You can upgrade your units by earning points by winning which is fun, and had some unique characteristics to set it apart. The gameplay is typically 1+ hrs but you can save and load your match at any time which is great, it also autosaves your matches so you can load it back up in case your device or app close for whatever reason. We've been playing for about a week and love that we can pick it up at anytime and play for a few minutes or a few hours. Love it.
It's kind of short. Needs more missions. But it's a pretty good little game. Plays smooth. No bugs. Good controls. No pay wall.
The game has excellent balance and challenges curve. We keep playing it for a long time and feel constant interest. The devs have made amazing job! So rare in our days.
Challenging A.we., landscape orientation, smooth controls all make this a game worth recommending. Many hours of fun await.
A pretty decent game overall. Would love to see multiplayer against other humans in the 'skirmish' option.
