About Athena Crisis/How it Differs From Genre Classics

You’ll be right at home in the world of Athena Crisis if you’re a fan of Advance Wars and seeking a freshened up take on the genre classic. This modern-retro turn-based strategy game presents a gripping single-player campaign filled with quirky characters, alongside ranked and casual online multiplayer modes that keep you on your toes.

Athena Crisis expands the classic turn-based strategy genre with modern features such as:

  • A robust map editor for those who love crafting custom worlds, and a full campaign editor for creating your own adventures.

  • Options to create, share, and play endlessly creative maps and full-blown campaigns with friends and a strong online community, ensuring a constant stream of new challenges.

  • Instant cross-progression between PC, iOS/Android, browser and Steam Deck (Verified). Pick up right where you left off no matter where you are!

  • Faster gameplay and fewer stalemates to keep each match fresh and exciting.

  • Blending classic modern military units with fantastical characters such as powerful Bazooka Bears, manipulative Zombies, and all-powerful Dragons.

  • Chill and friendly vibes and music for a welcoming atmosphere, while remaining deep enough for genre veterans to sink their teeth into.

Athena Crisis is built in Javascript, unlocking a host of possibilities for the developer to create features, balance units and push updates almost instantaneously. Developer Nakazawa Tech has also open-sourced parts of the game so others can join in on improving Athena Crisis, or using it as a basis for their own ambitious project.

  • Command 40+ infantry, ground, naval, air, and fantastical units in tense turn-based battles

  • Explore more than five environments with unique play-styles

  • Immerse yourself in a robust single player campaign with memorable characters
