The best Advance Wars clone so far on the Switch, with tons of content, accessible controls, and deceptively deep gameplay.
Top Critic
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble has some improvements over its predecessor, but falls into the same trap of letting you quickly spam units to win most missions. With a dull story that never grabs you and decent but unremarkable gameplay, Tiny Metal still has room to grow.
Top Critic
Cartoony and colorful, Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble offers an arcade-inspired twist on turn-based strategy gameplay, something that feels refreshing amidst a sea of realistic strategy warfare games.
Top Critic
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble is a great improvement on its predecessor Tiny Metal.
Top Critic
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble attempts to fill the void left by Advance Wars, but struggles meet expectations. Several issues with the games UI lead to more frustration than fun.
Top Critic
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble is a turn-based strategy game for the Nintendo Switch that follows its predecessor from two years ago and which improves on pretty much every aspect possible. With its in-depth offer of strategic gameplay options, large amount of content and very strong technical execution, Full Metal Rumble is a marvel of a game that also acts as a tribute to the games that inspired it.

Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble surpasses both its predecessor and the recent Wargroove to become the number one Advance Wars clone available on Switch right now.
Top Critic
Only minor tweaks and additions arrive to change the formula, so if you loved the first game you'll get plenty more to enjoy, but if you hated it...
Top Critic
Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble has many flaws. Shoddy controls and a badly designed UI have made a chore of navigating menus, and are a testament to the inferiority of the game’s PC port. Furthermore, the fragmented narrative has made it difficult to understand the premise of the game, while poor writing has made its main characters quite forgettable. Such problems, along with little difference between various factions and characters, have caused the levels to feel the same, and become monotonous after a while. Despite these flaws, however, this game has a solid tactical gameplay that will provide an enjoyable experience for fans of Advance Wars and other turned based tactics games

They've addressed a few complaints about the game, especially in handheld mode for me, which is pretty impressive for a year and a half turnaround between games. If the initial load and maps themselves weren't so long as to make it a chore to play in bursts, this could be an all timer. It's not a general, but sometimes you need staff sergeants.
