By Matt SainsburyIn other words, it’s a RTS game without any strategy, and a town building simulator with endless timers to deal with. The fact that I needed to use premium-currency gems within the first hour of play or be stuck having to exit the game to wait for the cash to build up to do something else. And a game you need to exit every half hour is not really a game that works on a console.

By Carlo De LeoniBattle Ages is a free-to-play game that released on 4/20/16 for Xbox One. At first glance it has a very clean, crisp and cartoonish look. I’ve never played Clash of Clans but it feels like it. You can join up with other clans, attack other players, defend your mini city and even play through the campaign. It has a very short tutorial that guides you through building, researching, attacking, and earning coins. It’s a good time waster, but not for more than 30 minutes at a time.
