Like the other Dynasty Warriors games, the play modes are Free Mode, Musou Mode and Challenge Mode.
[edit] Reception
Dynasty Warriors Advance received varied reviews upon release. IGN disliked the game, grading it 4 out of 10, [2] criticizing the low number of on-screen enemies at any time, and the "button-mashing" gameplay. Nintendo Power, however, awarded the game a 7 (out of 10), praising its replay value that "ranks among the best" on the Game Boy Advance system. The game currently has a 56 out of 100 score at Metacritic. [3]
