Drive on Moscow

I should of bought this when it came out! Even better than Bulge! EDIT>>> (I hope i haven't spoken to soon!?, Tbc...)

Thumb up !

Drive on Moscow is a distinctive turn-based strategy game that offers a unique gaming experience. One of its notable features is the ability to play as either Russia or Germany, selecting a general with historical significance. Depending on the starting point, playing as Russia in the winter scenario presents a slight advantage, as Germany struggles with equipment freezing and slow movement due to inadequate winter equipment. The game is won through accumulating victory points by achieving objectives, with the player having the most points at the end of the war declared the winner. The game has a board game-like feel, but this does not detract from the overall experience. At the start of the game, a feature called Command and Confusion provides a briefing on the scenario, outlining objectives and historical context. This element does an excellent job of establishing the historical accuracy of the events. Given the setting of Moscow, Russia must commit all available resources, as they were initially underprepared for Germany's military might. Conversely, as Germany, it is crucial to achieve objectives quickly, as delaying allows Russia to build up their forces and potentially overwhelm. The storytelling in this game is exceptional, conveyed through text rather than voice acting, yet effectively immersing the player in the wartime experience. Additionally, the game's mechanics, such as counters and unit movement, are noteworthy. Players are limited to three counters per square in battle, and unit movement is restricted by the sequencing of the game. This requires players to strategically plan their movements and attacks. The game's graphics and sound effects are also praiseworthy. The graphics are reminiscent of counters on a board, while the sound effects, including Russian music, effectively capture the feel of being at war. Overall, the game is a hidden gem that is both historically accurate and enjoyable to play. It is a great strategy turn-based war game that is easy to learn and pick up, making it a valuable addition to any gaming library. And on a side note, I really did enjoy this game it is really fun and historically accurate if that's important to you. 8.5/10

Nagyon!

Fun, decent, simple game. AI can be either Soviets or Germans. It's a pretty simple game and can be finished in an evening. Not sure I will play it very often, though

Una maravilla. Una escala mayor que el Battle of the Bulge. Mas largo. Para el que disfrute del placer estético de mirar, con una taza de café, el mapa y planear el siguiente movimiento. Recomendado por Taro. Que mas quieres, calamidad.

it's brilliant.

Es muy bueno, Sigue la senda de The Battle of the Bulge, que me recuerda a su vez, a un juego de Mesa de antaño sobre la batalla de Monte Cassino. Sólo sugeriría a los autores que hagan más juegos como éste y, puesto que el método ya está hecho, lo pongan a precios asequibles. Este precio lo es pero lo puede ser más.

Ok. So I've played a lot of this and at times I found it kind of fun. But if you really like slow games with the unnecessary need to click buttons too much and think defence is the way to go. Then this should be right up your alley. Playing the allies usually means not doing anything... just passing each turn. Like sweeping pincer attacks and fast blitzkrieg movements? Well, this isn't for you. Like being really frustrated and reloading the game a lot? Then this is for you. But yeah... even if you love to hate it, it will suck up hours of your life.

The game is very dynamic, like a blitz chess match, but at the same time very deep. I only play strategy games, and I keep asking myself how so many incompetent games survive on the market while games like this have been left to die. This game has incredible flow and playability. It’s true that it’s only in English, but if you convert the manual files and historical files to plain text you can translate them into any language, so anyone can play and, from inside the game, clear up any rules questions and read the historical background in their own language. It has a few changes compared to its predecessor, Battle of the Bulge, but it’s practically the same system. Playing both is like playing both fronts of World War II. There are still players who connect online to play: you just create two games, one with each side, and in a short time you’ll be playing. The same happens with Bulge. There’s a reason this game appeared on so many platforms: its gameplay really hooks fans of this kind of WW2 game. They should have kept producing other battles with this system and recreating the most important events of WW2. The original developers are gone, but the game has a new owner who focuses on other titles that will never offer the same dynamic gameplay this system has, which could still be improved and expanded. Don’t hesitate: buy it, you won’t regret it. Some critics may be right about certain flaws, but that doesn’t take away from the fun or from the undeniable value of the gameplay. Highly recommended
