What Makes DEFCON-2: Missiles of October Stand Out
Digital Gameworks' latest mini turn based strategy game, DEFCON-2 The Missiles of October OR: Grab a Scotch, Fire Up a Smoke… And Check Your Bomb Shelter! sets the 'Wayback Machine' to the Fall of 1962 and takes a somewhat darkly humorous 'What If?' look at OPLAN-312 and the closest the world has ever come to World War III during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Take command of an OPLAN-312 Strike Package in a deadly race to locate and destroy the Soviet Nuclear MRBMs before they become operational and are launched against the US Eastern Sea-Board, Jam Radar Installations to reduce SAM effectiveness, Destroy Airfields to suppress MIG Patrols, Set Reconnaissance and Air To Ground Mission altitudes to minimize or avoid AAA fire. Locate and destroy the tactical nuclear Luna Surface to Surface Missiles before they're launched against the US Base at Guantanamo.
Features:
- Abstracted 'Mini' Air War Game
- Quick Turn-Based Play
- Random Setup (No two games ever play the same)
- Full 3D Graphics, Particle Effects, Stylized Retro UI, Sound Effects and Music
This Strategy game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.
