Engage in a darkly humorous cold war strategy classic with Nuclear War, the iconic MS-DOS game from 1989. Step into the shoes of one of several caricatured world leaders, each vying for global supremacy through the liberal application of nuclear weapons. Your objective is simple: be the last nation standing, even if that means annihilating the entire planet in the process. Build up your missile silos, research increasingly devastating payloads, and launch your arsenal at your unsuspecting opponents, all while managing your population and morale. From propaganda rockets to ICBMs, every decision brings you closer to either total victory or nuclear winter. Its satirical take on global conflict, combined with its distinctive cartoon graphics and biting humor, cemented Nuclear War as a cult favorite. Prepare for mutually assured destruction and a strategic challenge like no other.
