Description

Inspired by the military theory of Carl von Clausewitz and the European war campaigns of Napoleon, Kriegspiel is a chess-variant played by two opposing players on a 20 x 25 game board. Capture the enemy's Arsenals to win. Deploy your Lines of Communication to keep friendly units in contact. Block enemy lines for strategic advantage.
"The surprises of this Kriegspiel seem to be inexhaustible," wrote French Situationist Guy Debord. In Debord's view the game represents the totality of factors at play in wartime maneuvers, what he called "the dialectic of all conflicts."

Wish you could play harder AI

This game seems right up my alley but you only get challenged if you play against someone else and on someone else’s timeline. I wish there was a harder difficulty available when playing against the app

I have been really enjoying this game and learning the mechanics. So far I have only played the computer as I don’t usually have time for an online. I really wish there was more difficult AI to play against! I’m also trying to convince my friends to play this with me.

super addicting!

incredibly simple and easy to learn, yet incorporates lots of strategy. the graphics enhance the experience imho. my only two complaints are that nobody ever seems to be online to play and the practice bot is waaay too easy. also it would be nice to have a board editor to make your own scenarios or recreate historical battles

The Classic Strategy Boardgame.

Great UI, if only every tablet game were this clean and uncluttered! Players simulate Napoleonic tactics with cavalry, infantry, and artillery. No dice. it’s somewhere between chess/shogi and an entry level wargame. It really teaches you the importance of combined arms tactics, and even more so the importance of keeping open clean lines of command back to your HQ.… units that’s are out of command become easy prey for the enemy. It’s very clean and intuitive gameplay, but deep. The AI is fairly weak, and playing it you will feel like Napoleon versus the Austrians, but it’s good enough to teach you the basics. If I had one request to the developer, it would be nice if we had a couple of alternate maps to play on, although I realize getting one just right must take a lot of work. Also, the tutorial could use some explanation of retreat.

Chess but better.

This is a amazing strategy game. I hope it takes off. The only thing I feel is lacking is that practice mode could use some more difficult settings.

Crash

Started to play vs Computer but it kept crashing. Deleted

Looks good but unplayable. (FIXED)

hsjsjshsjslj on

United States

Game instantly crashes as soon as I move the first unit I’m the tutorial. It looks fun but I literally cannot play. Please fix ): EDIT: Game dev told me how to fix the issue, so I’m editing it to 4 stars since I can actually play now. Probably will be 5 if I really like it.

Superb game

This game is clearly a labor of love. The developer has built a very user friendly UI that helps make this complex and very rich game approachable to beginners. Great work!

Always heard of this mythical game

I learned about the Game of War back in college while studying DeBord and the Situationists and was super interested in trying it out some day. The game itself seemed so complex and talk of coefficients, but the way it was talked about: “ I [DeBord] played this game, and in the often difficult conduct of my life drew a few lessons from it — setting rules for my life, and abiding by them.” So the fact that this exists in such an accessible format with so much help and with so much further potential and transparency at this current moment is truly special. I am very excited to sink my teeth further into this and introduce it to my friends!
