Creation
Louis Castle, a veteran game designer and co-founder of Westwood Studios, played a crucial role in the creation of War Commander: Rogue Assault. In an interview with Pocket Gamer, Castle discussed his return to the real-time strategy (RTS) genre and the development of the game.[4]
Castle, who had previously worked on classic RTS games such as Command & Conquer, was drawn to the challenge of creating a deep and engaging RTS experience on mobile devices. He saw War Commander: Rogue Assault as an opportunity to push the boundaries of what was possible on mobile platforms and create a game that would appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers.[4] With a team of experienced developers and designers at Kixeye, Castle set out to create a game that would combine the strategic depth of classic RTS games with the accessibility and convenience of mobile gaming[4].
Gameplay
War Commander: Rogue Assault is a real-time strategy game that requires players to build and maintain their own military base while also attacking other players’ bases to gain resources and climb the ranks. Players can collect resources such as oil, metal, and Thorium, which are used to upgrade their base and units.
Players can also train and command a variety of units, including infantry, tanks, and helicopters, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. In addition, players can research new technologies and unlock new units to improve their chances of success in battle.
The game features both a single-player campaign mode and a multiplayer mode where players can join alliances with other players to take on more difficult challenges and earn more rewards.
Reception
War Commander: Rogue Assault has received generally positive reviews from critics and players[4]. The game has been praised for its high-quality graphics and engaging gameplay, as well as its well-balanced mechanics and variety of units[5].
However, some players have criticized the game’s heavy emphasis on microtransactions, which allow players to purchase resources and other in-game items with real money. Additionally, some players have reported technical issues and bugs that have affected their gameplay experience[6].
Overall, War Commander: Rogue Assault remains a popular and well-regarded real-time strategy game on mobile devices, with a dedicated player base and regular updates and content releases from the developers.
