Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator is a tactical strategy with roguelike elements which is now available on the Nintendo Switch after its launch on Sunday. The game was previously released on PC, while other consoles will get a release on a later date.
Developed by the Polish indie studio, MadGamesmith, combines roguelike elements with tactical strategic gameplay.
In Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator, you will command the brave Gauls with the goal to conquer ancient Rome. The game is distinguished by, among other things, dynamic gameplay, crazy ragdoll physics, graphics inspired by Asterix and a challenging difficulty level.
The game is about placing your warriors in properly planned places, plan out their tasks, observe the battles and cast spells. You can use a wide variety of units, equipped with items like swords, spears, and bows. You can also battle using traps, use spells, or catapults.
Rafał Jelonek, COO at Ultimate Games S.A. had this to say,
In Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator players can count on unusual tactical challenges, a challenging level of difficulty and a considerable dose of madness. When it comes to the graphics, one of the main inspirations was the style of Albert Uderzo, the artist associated with the cult series of comics about Asterix.
Last year, game creator Andrzej Noworol detailed a little bit about the game where he said,
This is a project combining a light audiovisual setting and a relatively high level of difficulty. In graphic terms, the title refers to the unique style of Albert Uderzo, known for his iconic Astérix comic books series. In terms of the gameplay itself, I am convinced that Gallic Wars: Battle Simulator will appeal to fans of non-standard tactical challenges, but also to those who like Totally Accurate Battle Simulator.
Here are the main features of the game:
- a tactical strategy game with roguelike elements;
- Gauls and Romans;
- a unique gameplay model;
- graphics inspired by Astérix comic books;
- diverse units, spells and destruction tools;
