Cartoon Wars

Cartoon Wars is a series of games that is developed by Blue GNC. In this series, there is Cartoon Wars 1, Gunner and Cartoon Wars 2. Cartoon wars 1 was a single track strategy game, that is there is a single track and your base is at one side and you are trying to destroy an enemy base on the other side. Cartoon Wars 1 was a fun game but there was no ending to it, you just kept playing until you couldn't pass anymore levels because the difficulty just kept getting harder. Gunner was a game where you controlled a hero, ranked him or her up as you played and once again eventually couldn't play anymore because the levels just keep getting harder. Gunner was also fun but it lacked the satisfaction of beating the game. Cartoon Wars 2 combined Cartoon Wars 1 and gunner into one game and it was a great game.

In Cartoon Wars 2 there are several different modes you can play on, and these modes are story mode, quick mode, hell mode, and santa mode. In story mode you start out with the basic units and you must battle your way through six acts to beat the final boss. As you play you get money and can level up your units, hero and base to make them better. The base battles are like Cartoon Wars 1 because they are single track battles, but the hero battles are like Gunner because you control the hero. In the story mode for each base battle there is a hero battle. Quick mode just throws you into a base battle and selects units for you to use. Hell mode uses both hero battles and base battles but these levels, just like the name implies, are extremely hard. Santa mode is a mode that Blue released around Christmas time and has you helping santa to defend against the evil army so he can deliver presents.

I like all the games in the Cartoon Wars series. Cartoon Wars 1 was fun but like I said above it didn't end and you never really beat the game. Gunner was the same way. Blue really did well with Cartoon Wars 2 because it found a way to combine the other two games and make it fun. When I got these games they were all a dollar but I don't know if that has changed at all. Blue regularly updates Cartoon Wars 2 so the game never really gets old because there is always new content to play. I would recommend these games to anyone who likes single track strategy games.

This does sound fun. Why is it called Cartoon Wars, though? Are the characters famous cartoons or exaggerated cartoons?

The game is awesome. When on story mode. I suggest starting off with Morgan. Her last form is a OP angel with a high attack. I also suggest you max out the hero's stats before you go into deep battle. After Act 3 it gets pretty intense. Act 6.. You should at least have 4 hero's maxed out. The last two bosses are just... I can't even explain. It's like a walking castle.
