    Despite the bizarre you-failed-because-the-Germans-surrendered quirk this is one of the top turn-based strategy titles of the generation. On the down side it isn’t something casual gamers will get into easily. Play the trial first.

    A quite good and fast-paced strategy game. It's basically a digital board and card game. [Jan 2010]

    Panzer General: Allied Assault is not for everyone. It will definitely gain a small subset of rabidly devoted XBLA players and rightly so - it's a great tactical turn-based game. But the average gamer will be a long way outside of their comfort zone.

    A title that very few people would enjoy. The game’s slow speed and historical context will only appeal to strategic and war enthusiasts, rather than the typical average gamer.

    I was surprised how much fun Panzer General: Allied Assault was. The game features small board and well-balanced turn-based tactical fights with maintenance of few resources types. There isn't proper introduction, so if you can't figure out the basic game during trial, it's probably frustrating -- maybe not recommended for people new to the genre. On the other hand, the game mechanics are fairly simple. For this money, the campaign is fun, but AI can't keep up outside the campaign. I didn't play online so no comment about the longevity or community. There are few glitches (one with victory condition can be annoying) and UI could ever so little more polished.… Expand

    Game was a solid turn based game. I read somewhere about it being a little slow and it was for the first 25 minutes, but if you look at the way the award system works a game is only supposed to go 4 turns if you good, that takes about 15 min total per match. I beat the first half of the campaign in about 2 hours (which is the first 6 missions) this is included going back to 2 of them to beat them for the top ranking. I also feel i should mention i know nothing about history or war. I read some Critic review that you needed/cared to know that for this game. Totally False.… Expand
