About the project:
Battle of the Bulge is the first game by Shenandoah Studio, a group of veteran game designers and developers who have come together to publish top quality strategy games on the iPad, in the spirit of classic board games. Collectively, we have over 160 years of game design and development experience. See our video above for more about the game and the Studio’s vision for gaming on the iPad.
- Play by yourself, as either the Germans or Allies, or
- Face-to-face by passing the iPad, or
- Face-to-face using two iPads, or
- Over the Internet, asynchronously.
You can play as many games simultaneously as you would like, “Wars with Friends” if you will. The touch screen totally changes the experience of simulation games, making them faster to play, more interactive, and more fun.
Battle of the Bulge is a classic gaming situation, with a surprise attack, desperate defense, and bold counterattack. The Germans rush to exploit their initial strength, while the Allies struggle to hold on and then counterattack. The game play is quick and the strategy deep.
Here’s a look at the the game so far…
