After the selections of the best online strategy games and the best classic strategy games, this week we come with a new compilation dedicated to this genre: the best turn-based strategy games. Although they have a lot to do with classic strategy games (all of them are turn-based strategy, in fact), these are very different from Clash of Clans-style games in that they completely eliminate the time factor, so they Those of you who prefer to take your time to think through your decisions will especially like them, although they are very challenging and addictive games with the potential to hook anyone. As always, we bring you a top 5 with some of the best titles that we can find both in the App Store and in Google Play, plus an extra, a title that although it is not the only one that is paid, has a much more price higher than the others and that may require some more thought before making the purchase.
Worms 3
We start, as we usually do, with what is probably the most popular of our selection, since in this case it is a title that was already a classic among gaming games. PC: The Worms. We have opted to highlight the third installment, but in reality any of the games in the saga can be a good option. For those of you who didn't know it yet, the gameplay is easy to sum up: we'll handle a team of worms who faces another team in an underground battle with the help of the weapons as fun as destructive, which is one of its main charms.
Battle for Westnoth
We continue with another classic of the games of turn-based strategy for PC, something less popular perhaps and with a much more serious tone than the previous one: Battle for Westnoth. In this case, it is not, moreover, a new version made for mobile devices, but directly from a port from the PC version, with some small adjustments that are necessary so that we can handle it without problems on touch screens and smaller. It is not even an official port, but it works perfectly and will even allow us to connect to online games with other users (although we are not the host).
Uniwar
Uniwar focuses much more than any other title on the list on the multiplayer mode and to compensate for the heaviness that can sometimes be waiting for the users against whom we are facing to complete their turn, we have in exchange the possibility of maintaining up to 20 games simultaneously. We can also compete not only with the Scenarios by default, but also with the built by other users. Although it is its main attraction, in any case, there is no lack of options to play against the machine or another very interesting one, which is to play against a friend on the same device, in the style of board games.
Skulls of the shogun
En Skulls of the shogun We found a better balance between campaign mode and multiplayer mode and a comic aesthetic that gives it a more casual air, something to which the bizarre combinations of samurai y zombies that we will see in the battles. What distinguishes it the most, however, is that it is a game created directly for mobile devices, something that is noticeable in offering us a game faster, with shorter shifts, but also, logically, with a less tactical depth. A game suitable for those less familiar with the genre or for those who simply want a slightly higher pace.
Great little war 2
As Skulls of the shogun, Great little war It was already born in the environment of games for mobile devices, which makes it also somewhat lighter but also on the good side, that its playability is much better adapted to small and touch screens. East Great little war 2 that we have selected, in fact, is already optimized for smartphones as well, although it will still continue to play much more pleasantly on a tablet. The original game, in any case, it is equally recommended and there is both a "lite" version, free, like another paid version, whose price is just over 5 euros.
Civilizations Revolution 2
We finish with that extra title of which, as we anticipated, first of all it must be said that it is quite expensive to be a game for mobile devices: its price right now is $10, but it is usually around the $15. Of course, if we decide to pay that high price, we find a game that is careful to the smallest detail and with the guarantee that the seal always supposes. 2K, in which we can develop our own empire and promote their dominance through the ages. It also has a game mode more than quick games in which we can test our strategic ability in re-enactments of historical battles.
