    Steel Diver: Sub Wars is better and more focused than its precursor. The slow, calculated multiplayer matches afford plenty of opportunity for strategic fun, though the single-player mode is more a tutorial than a substantial component. While the premium content is substantial, offering many more submarines and the addition of customizable crews, free players aren’t at an insurmountable disadvantage.

    Nothing is polished, from the almost unfinished sub models to the dreary-looking ocean depths with an even drearier draw instance. It's uncharacteristic for Nintendo, especially this late in the 3DS' lifecycle. The "morse code" chat system mechanic is awesome though, since it fits right into Nintendo's "safe" online methodologies and the theme of Sub Wars itself.

    Whether or not you're willing to pay for some extra features, Steel Diver: Sub Wars features a highly enjoyable online multiplayer mode; that's something, perhaps, that the 3DS has missed so far. Since it's free, you have no excuse not to check it out — perhaps you'll even like it so much that you'll spend some money.

    Nintendo ha querido dar continuidad a una de las propuestas primigenias que acompañaron al lanzamiento de Nintendo 3DS. Steel Diver: Sub Wars nos sumerge de nuevo en un arcade protagonizado por submarinos que ofrece una jugabilidad bastante más relajada y sencilla de la que suele ser habitual en este tipo de juegos, resultando entretenida a corto y medio plazo pero carente de "punch". Por lo menos el modo multijugador anima las cosas un poco.

    Die Steuerung ist eine nette Idee, die Kulisse in Ordnung, der Rest ziemlich überflüssig. Steel Diver: Sub Wars ist genauso langweilig wie sein Vorgänger, auch wenn die sieben Missionen immerhin versuchen mir Abwechslung vorzugaukeln. Der öde Mehrspieler-Modus und die notwendige Wiederholung der Missionen machen den Unterwasser-Ausflug zu einer passablen Einschlafhilfe.

    Steel Diver: Sub Wars é uma boa entrega por parte da Nintendo no mundo dos Free To Play, qualquer um pode (e deve) descarregar a versão gratuita, nem que seja para lançar uns torpedos online e enviar umas mensagens em código morse. Aqueles que decidirem pagar pela versão premium para ter acesso ao resto do conteúdo terão acesso a uma experiência mais personalizável e profunda que os restantes.
