Only kids will likely get much out of the game's storyline, but anyone who enjoys a good turn-based strategy-RPG will find plenty to like about this game.
Read Full Review >Games Radar (in-house)
To put those complaints into perspective, it'll take you 40-plus hours to finish the story mode. Longer if you try to complete all of the optional badlands missions. That's 40-plus hours worth of awesome battles and addictive customizing.

The card subsystem in Drone Tactics is interesting and unique, and it helps set the title apart from other similar games.
Read Full Review >1UP
Drone Tactics may look like Advance Wars with giant mechanical bugs and an absurd plot, but it's challenging and fun. Just watch out for those damn centipedes.
Read Full Review >Cheat Code Central
Adult players may find the story a tad on the horrendous side, but Drone Tactics easily holds its own in the strategy and gameplay departments.

If you consider yourself a fan of turn-based strategy games, though, you may find the engaging insect mech combat to be worth it.
Read Full Review >Worth Playing
A solid title with a lot of shine on the core gameplay. Anyone looking for something new in the genre should give this a test run.
Read Full Review >Eurogamer
It's definitely a superior example of turn-based strategy, and certainly the best insect-based example of the genre. And, in a slightly tenuous attempt to tie the end of this review back in to our opening trivia, it's definitely more fun than counting to 10 quintillion.

The result is a storyline that will elicit nothing but eye-rolls and nasal snorts from anyone over 12, but the game at the core of Drone Tactics is surprisingly well-made. [June 2008, p.87]
Game Informer
Drone Tactics is functional and occasionally fun, but it never gets exciting.

Genre fans won't find much challenge here but it's diverting enough while it lasts. [Aug 2008, p.68]
