  • More than 60 exciting single player missions.
  • Within Story Mode, players can play through an additional 38 Trial stages. Although independent of the Story Mode, the Trial stages add much to the game play challenge and depth.
  • New strategies also emerge by way of the Command Zone. For the first time, a Commanding Officer can enter one of the units, and by doing this, he or she creates a Command Zone.
  • Create your own maps and share them with your friends or upload them to Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

It's focuses on a kid who wakes up after the apocalypse and finds out quickly that he's not the only survivor. He joins a group who is trying to find other survivors...[More]


best DS strategy game

The previous game, advance wars dual strike, was an all time favorite for me. I played that game until this gem came out, which far surpasses the old one.
