How it feels

You feel like a shadowy puppet master carefully managing proxy conflicts and espionage while always aware that one miscalculation could trigger global annihilation.

What players say

Players are split on Precipice. Some enjoy it as a simple Cold War strategy game, but many warn about heavy reliance on luck with few ways to mitigate dice rolls. Long-time players also report that the AI is brain-dead, the game is buggy, and the developer has abandoned it without fixing known issues like misaligned mouse pointers on widescreen monitors.
