A genre containing only one game series from one company? :P

There are probably 100s of this style of game... and from many companies. I'm not exaggerating. Many before "advance wars", too.

The earliest one I've played was Operation Combat on the Amiga in 1991.

If there are so many, can you show one example at least?

Yeah, it’s really common for indie games to be derivative of big name games. Examples:

Wargroove (advanced wars)

Stardew Valley (harvest moon)

Etc. Wargroove isn’t really even “indie” as Chucklefish is a very established studio.

So, yeah… this is normal and not worthy of criticism.
