March 2025
"I just need enough more nukes than my enemies". "I just need to take out their counter attack capabilities". "I just need to shoot down their ICMBs". Every time I start a game I am fully convinced that THIS TIME I'll be able to win nuclear war but in the end there is no winning, everyone dies every time. 10/10 best game to develop existential dread over the possibiltiy nuclear warfare! For the more useful review: The game took me maybe 30 minutes to pick up, everything is explained very well, it loads in less than 2 seconds and I've not encountered any bugs or glitches

Would absolutely recommend this game to anyone, 10/10. Might want to wait until it's on sale though, as it can be a little pricey for what you get. If you get bored of the base game, you can always install mods or even create your own. I would suggest people to play this game before ICBM: Escalation though, as it's much more beginner friendly and lends itself more heavily to the skill of the player, not the other AI. Am planning to buy Escalation too

With more support, more features, an upgraded UI, a clan system, etc. this game could be incredible, the Dawn at Midnight mod is incredible and is, in my opinion, how the base game should have launched. it is a must have mod!!

this game is so fun and addicting 1000000% but it is hard to under stand at first but it only takes like 3-4 games to become decent at the game!!! recommend!! i would recommend getting two mods though one called omnnicide and one called extended peace time.

Very fun game, lots to do in the base game and is only expanded upon by the community with mods like dawn at midnight and omnicide. If you like nuclear (or thermonuclear) weapons, this is the game for you.
