How it feels
Feels like a meticulous and tense naval command simulator where every sensor ping and weapon launch is a calculated decision in a cold, high-stakes environment.

What players say
Players are split: some call it a faithful classic of Cold War naval simulation and a bargain, while others say the non-functional scenario editor and crashes on modern Windows make it unplayable. The interface is clunky but the depth of realistic, slow-paced combat is praised.
