"It's Global Thermonuclear War, and nobody wins...
...But maybe - just maybe - you can lose the least."
Cold War is turning hot. Like in the movie WarGames, you are an unnamed general sitting in a bunker and directing your nation to fight the nuclear war. You chose one of the five nuclear powers on the planet Earth in the 80s, working in vain to stop your opponets from nuking your civilians, while at the same time try to return the favour and get even. The result? Megadeaths on all sides, where the winner is the one that lose the least. This is THE one and only Mutual Assured Destruction simulator coming to your computer.
This game is the very defination that solid gameplay is worth a lot more than fancy graphic and features, plus an atmosphere/theme that questions the morality of nuclear weapons at every turn. With a very cheap price and can run on any crappy computer, this game is a bargin...the only problem is that you have to buy it over the 'net - so Steam haters beware.
