What players love

What players love

Players praise a polished, original artillery simulator from a two-person team: read the teleprinter, measure the map, strain the hydraulics, make every shot count. They love the dieselpunk atmosphere, the music and the dark humour, say it runs well on modest machines, and keep asking for one thing: co-op.
