Developer Description

Play the escalation in an action-packed nuclear strategy game!

Millions of commanders already played First Strike all over the world. Now it is back as First Strike: Classic: The complete rebuild of the iconic strategy game about blowing up the world in the nuclear armageddon. This remaster is more stable, more cunning in its enemies and the best First Strike we ever made.

====================

Escalation is a downward spiral.

A nuclear armageddon is no one’s dream scenario. So choose your steps carefully, it’s a small path between war and peace. FIRST STRIKE is a great strategy simulation featuring snappy gameplay and an intuitive interface that makes dropping the big one as easy as ABC. But be sure to take the right measures to guarantee your people’s safety.

Pick one of the big nuclear players – from known Superpowers to an upstart hellraiser like North Korea – and plan your strategy wisely: Limited but clever options let you as the leader of your superpower steer your nation’s fate: Expand to other countries, build bombs or debuild in order to restructure your arsenal. Or use research to widen your options, such as: Ability to act quicker and build bigger bombs, better recon on your enemies actions, automated self-defense-sequences and many more.

Whether you’re a bloodthirsty warmonger or a tree-hugging hippie – it’s time to put your cards on the table. A quick and fun game with beautiful graphics, FIRST STRIKE shows you how little it takes to heat things up. With the tip of your finger you can control the destiny of the precious and vulnerable rock floating through space, the rock we call mothership Earth.

killer gaming

good strategy game easy to learn and fun to play you'll definitely lose a couple times on the harder modes but none the less after you get the hang of whats the most effective it gets easier

★★★★

it's fun to play an old favorite of mine again, but wow they fumbled the balance. In the past, nukes did far less damage and capitals were harder to destroy so that single state countries had a chance. I remember North Korea in particular had lots of health. But now, these balances are gone and most single state countries can get spawn killed by Russia. Also, diplomacy is no longer viable because for some reason this makes nations attack you. There are audio issues and overpriced. Still fun tho

★★★

crashing issues have been fixed, the game at its core is alright, but not amazing

Was working fine with no issues on my s24 plus and suddenly just keeps crashing when loading into the map after you select your country and 2 weapons. JUNE UPDATE: please release a bug fix this game is too fun to not be able to play.

Sadly, this game no longer runs, crashes as soon as I try to open it. I loved this game when it came out several years ago, but now it is no longer playable. I've tried clearing cache and data, uninstalling and reinstalling, restarting my phone, sadly though nothing works which is unfortunate since this was a really fun game.
