Reviews

Decent start
Just a Guy in DC

The good: Simple interface, decent strategy, relatively balanced, good graphics (given the intent of making it look like a 1980s vector map). Early on, it shows the futility of all-out nuclear war. Potential, but could be improved: show the score at the end of the game. Break it down by who fired how many nukes, and who caused how much destruction. Change ABM options: make them automatic, make them separate from the silos, make them load only as often as the nukes, and give each upgradable nation one per upgrade. The bad: ICBMS are useless. MIRVS are so much more effective, they can be used exclusively. Sound and music is terrible. ABMs aren't useful as currently designed. If you use them you go to fully defensive mode, and you cannot progress.


A great game
Chris Tracy

This is a simple arcade like game thats fun when you simply want to blow some %#*! up. While I love this game and think its a good start it could use a couple improvements. For starters I would like an abort button that causes nukes to detonate harmlessly in the air. An accidental nuke placement can ruin your entire game. Another thing I would like to see is a nation status on your relations. Like a little list off to the side saying stuff such as "declared total war" and " retaliating with [insert number here] nukes. That way I would know when I would have to wait it out and when to attack back. Other than that this is a great game! Keep it up!


Good! But could use improvement

The game is fun and awesome but, please fix a bug where your mega kill points and previous upgrade disappear after closing out of the app!!


Fun but hard to read the text
Kevin Bee

One heck of a fun game but all the text is small and very hard to read. Hope that can be fixed.

I would love I you could watch the war carry on, even after your silos are destroyed, and maybe even politics after the war, thx for the great game


Lots of fun
Long John Buster

Once you get the knack of it (target silos for one country, then concentrate on abm defense till other nations back off, then hit them) it gets easy. Still lots of fun. Addictive, even. Wishlist: Option for npc nations to attack each other based on alliances. Global nuclear war! This part feels like it's unfinished More ui: show enemies currently attacking you Option to keep playing after killing silos
