About this game

▶ IMPORTANT: Hex of Steel is a graphically intensive game. For the best experience, especially in the largest scenarios, we recommend using a device with a strong GPU/CPU. Devices from 2017 onward, like the iPhone X, should handle these scenarios smoothly. However, all devices can access the extensive campaign mode and engage in thrilling multiplayer battles. ◀

Fantastic turn based strategy game with lots of depth, customization, and replayability. This is one of those rare games on mobile that is actually worth playing and for a super reasonable price. If you like turn based WW2 games like the Panzer Corps series you should love this. We need more quality games like this on mobile! Way too much shovelware to shift through to find gems like this.

I hope I don't offend War Frogs Studio by saying this but this game is a must have for fans of the old Panzer/Allied General console games from the early 90's. I have been looking for someone to make this game for decades. I can't believe it only has 5K downloads. I only wish I had known about it when it was on Kickstarter. The only complaint I have is that there's no way to toggle the hex grid on/off. Otherwise absolutely 10/10, will highly recommend to all (don't mean to gush 😎).

Unfortunately, there is no hex grid. What you see is the actual hex, they were painted that way, it cannot be turned off since it actually is the hex. Thanks for the review!

the game itself... excellent. the unit sprites are a really good touch and make it very immersive. the game even has a map editor, many different scenarios and campaign choices so replayability is excellent. however the game, atleast on android, runs very hot and drains battery faster than most other games. maybe this can be fixed one day, otherwise a really good purchase. EDIT: Problem fixed now, my framerate was set very high in graphics settings. though i would like an option to set GUI scale
