A long while ago I ran across a post or tweet or something about a turned based Vietnam game coming to iOS/iPad... I jumped on the idea and asked the producer, Johan Nagel, about the project and he asked if I was interested in beta/alpha testing it... I said sure, been beta testing it on iPad, and then recently via Slitherine on PC... building a good relationship with Johan and then the Lead Programmer, Claudio De Sa, I made a number of comments, ideas, and fixes throughout the process... and after what seemed a long time for me, Vietnam 65 is being released MARCH 5th for iPad and for PC via Slitherine, who came into the picture much later.
Vietnam 65 is a single player game only and not a overly detailed or in-depth game... no major number crunching here, but it is a very good turn based game unique to the war of Vietnam, where the objective is to win the hearts and minds of the civilians/villages... and seek and destroy the enemy. Don't get me wrong this is no arcade game either... it's just basic with the objectives, check out the release trailer and the web site for more info... and support them if you like the idea... development is not over, no garrentee but I recommended shift boats for the rivers, (what my dad did during the war.) and other things may or may not come now or later.
