Back in the GBA days, Advance Wars made a name for itself as a kid-friendly turn-based alternative to point 'n' click blow-'em-ups like Command & Conquer. And now, Re-Boot Camp bundles the original game and its sequel, Black Hole Rising, in one spruced-up Switch package.
Battles in Re-Boot Camp are fought on top-down grids with land, sea and air units, which each have their own strengths and weaknesses. These skirmishes play out with each side moving their units in a single turn, as you try to bait the enemy or rush in to gain control. Different terrain increases your defences, while Fog of War obscures unexplored portions of maps until you deploy a recon unit or get a soldier to higher ground.
The first casualty of war isn't truth, it's anti-phallocentrism.

HOW CHEAP IS YOUR LOVE?
‘Affordable’ is very much a relative term. To a billionaire, building a champagne-fuelled rocket out 24-carat gold, filling it with diamonds the size of Yorkshire puddings and blasting it into outer space just for something to do is affordable; but to the rest of us, a couple of hundred quid can bust the budget.
