War Mongrels is a great game with a raw vision of World War II. Fans of Commandos series should be satisfied, history buffs will find some interesting facts, and all gamers will get an original story about redemption and a really solid gameplay.

War Mongrels is not the worst attempt at an offshoot of Commandos. The missions are comprehensive and with diverse content, the audiovisual side is good. But then there are things that are not good enough.

War Mongrels pulls no punches in its grim, realistic depiction of WWII. Do you like Commandos? Then try its new cousin and attempt to overlook several mistakes, such as the unimpressive AI.

Unplayable due to nonsense controls. It can’t be 3 buttons to walk then three buttons to chew gum. I love RTS games but couldn’t get through the first portion of this one. Very disappointing.

This is simply the best rendition of Commandos-style ww2 strategy to date. There are a couple of bugs here and there, but nothing game-breaking (except for one, which was solved by restarting the mission). The story is great, and the characters are unique, with well-written relationships. Great voice acting and script as well. 10/10

The graphics are fine. The music and sounds good. The game is a crap. The enemy visions is deceptive and often not a little. The vision cone color is bad, so your eyes bleed when you stare at the monitor.Direct shooting is crap. It's completely unnecessary in a game like this, but it's also poorly implemented and ill-conceived.Often it don't even have the intention of executing a planned action or one character executes it while the other just rolls, slides, and crawls on the ground like a regular idiot.Picking up corpses is often torture, not to mention the discarded objects (e.g. knife, cigarette, bottle, etc) .It's completely linear and doesn't give you any freedom. There's one way, go for it yourself if you don't like it.Totally amateur z+++ category undemanding garbage like all the "games" of this team.

No computador é mais facil de jogar do que no PS5 porém é questão de costume. Não desistam do jogo logo de inicio pois é um grande jogo.

At its best, War Mongrels is a smart and challenging RTT game that really exercises your logic skills and makes you take a minute to gather your thoughts before acting on them – otherwise you die. And you will die often as you explore all of its fun features exploit your surroundings and character abilities. Sadly, this RTT game also tends to take advantage of your patience with its messy controls, irksome voice acting, and bugs that can lead to frustrating moments that make you want to stop playing. It’s rewarding when it works in your favor, but its rough edges will surely turn the fun into a struggle.

My heart really wants to give War Mongrels a higher score for the love that went into the visual aspect and the bravery to tackle one of the lesser remembered parts of the Word War 2, but the bugs and some really bad dialogue stayed my hand.

10/10 Did not experience any game breaking or progress restricting bugs. Needs some polish but it's a game that in spirit is Commandos 4

Very strong game mechanics and story-wise. Unfortunately - bugs. Game was not tested well enough and suffers from it.

Not a total disaster as a game, but because of the bug, there is a high possibility you get stuck. The story is bullpoop - fairy tale for polish super-patriots, who wants to belevie so bad, that our nation is so heroic, so brave, that Europe would probably be gone during WWII if not the polish resistance. I don`t buy it. I know - it`s just a action game. But the plot is about very fragile aspects of our history, and the collectibles and encyclopedia of the game tries to crate an impression, that you can learn some history there. Yeah, maybe for some radicals. I would say the motives of Destructive Creations are at least questionable....
