Earlier in the year we (finally) reviewed Carrier Battles 4 Quadacanal<\/em><\/a>, a rare \u2018serious\u2019 iOS wargame that throws players into tWW2’s Pacific theatre, with gameplay and an aesthetic reminiscent of classic hex-and-counter wargames.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a game that\u2019s gone from strength to strength since releasing in 2016, and it recently went ‘Universal’ by being made available on iPhones. Now the game is making another big leap \u2013 Android!<\/p>\n

Technically, it\u2019s main focus is the jump to PC, but Carrier Battles<\/em> latest Kickstarter<\/a> seems to want to offer a wholly revamped experience across all platforms \u2013 PC, Android AND iOS. It\u2019s going to have an improved AI, a new snazzy looking map, and you\u2019ll even be able to play a Japanese campaign.<\/p>\n

There will also be plenty of new scenarios plucked from the Pacific Theatre between 1941 \u2013 44, including Wake Island and a new \u2018What if\u2019 campaign in the Hebrides.<\/p>\n

We suggest checking out the Kickstarter page in full if you\u2019re interested in supporting the game, and there\u2019s also our review<\/a>. At the time of writing, the project was at \u00a34,300 out of a goal of \u00a317,500, with 32 days to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
