Explosions, machine gun fire, and the hum of engines are all of high-quality. Keeping in line with the World War 2 motif, Frozen Front recaps your opponent's turn through replays which are shown through a vintage filter while the sound of a film projector plays. These aren't particularly flashy graphics, but the game is more focused on its gameplay. The unit models in Frozen Front look like pieces right out of a tabletop game. Another important part of the game are supply depots which can be used to either heal units or buy reinforcements. Things become complicated when unit vision range, each unit only being able to return fire once while on defense, and specialized units are all factored in. For example, an infantry unit might be excellent at blowing up tanks, but could be vulnerable against anti-infantry units. In any case, you place your units around the map and tap on which of your opponents units you'd like to attack.Įach unit has a strength and weakness. This part of the gameplay is more suited towards the larger screens of tablets rather than smartphones, but this is only a minor annoyance. You control your units by tapping on and directing them to which tiles to move to or which units to attack. Prior to the match, you set how much gold you would like to start the match with and it can be used towards repairs, reinforcements, or fortifications.
Players take turns and pass the device to one another in “hot seat” style gameplay. Multiplayer is an interesting part of the game in that it’s offline.
