How it feels

A methodical game of Cold War espionage where you destabilize enemy countries through spies and experts rather than direct military force.

What players say

Players describe a turn-based Cold War strategy game about espionage and influence without direct military combat, but note it has a learning curve and a low-budget feel. Many report it forces a 1024x768 resolution and has other technical issues, though some with many hours say it can be fun once understood.
