Who has played this & what do they think

And for those who havent, why not?

I wound up having a dream about this and it was weird... I was a survivor in a world that had been involved in an all-out nuclear war.

That game is bone-chillingly realistic.

I've played it. It's pretty sweet. It is somewhat worrying how effectively Africa can deploy nuclear weapons, however.

I think it's pretty good.

They released a demo btw.

It's an upgrade of the old MSDos "Global Thermonuclear War" game.

Cool.

I hate it when a game site doesn't have a page or link to a page with the system requirements. I realize that, as a Mac user, it's most likely unplayable by my machine, but it'd be nice to have it confirmed in small print somewhere.

I found it pretty good, I've only played the demo though.

The biggest thing was struggling with the idea of no matter how well I think I played, the computer still has nukes somewhere and I will still lose half of my populace.

Once you realize that getting the ever loving snot nuked out of you is inevitable, it's more fun. ;)

The only winning move is not to play.

No, but perhaps there's tic-tac-toe.

Sounds like real nuclear warfare to me...

Well, at least they're doing a Mac and a Linux version. Maybe they'll post the system requirements when those versions are finished.

Oh, yay. I play the one-in-a-row version. And I go first.




I win!
