Reception

[edit]

Sector.sk and Peter Zeilstra of Gamer.nl praised the realistic graphics and gameplay, though the latter noted that a tank simulator would always be "dry". However, both publications criticised the lack of multiplayer gameplay.[1][2]

In 2015, PC Gamer contributor Tim Stone described it as one of the 20 best war games in history.[4]
