WunderWaffen, a multi-player strategy game set at the end of World War II, is now available in Ares Games’ warehouses in US and Europe, and can be ordered from the best game retailers and on the Ares Games web shop.
The game was pre-released at Essen Spiel and PAX-Unplugged, with great initial reactions from both newcomers to the hobby and expert gamers. WunderWaffen is set in the last months of World War II, when the Allies are racing towards Berlin, while Germany tries to resist and develop new “wonder weapons”.
Through simple rules, the game recreates the troubled collaboration between the Russian, British, and American Allies in the final phase of the war, and Germany’s desperate attempt to resist until the very end, developing new and lethal weapons. In the game, the Allies must collaborate to defeat their common enemy but also compete to emerge as the main winner by conquering the most territories.
Each faction has specific military forces — infantry, tanks, artillery, aviation — and morale and political resources they can use with strategy and timeliness. The Germany player uses their last troops, together with Research cards, to deploy secret weapons and advanced technologies in an attempt to stop the Allies’ advance and turn the tables on the conflict.
Designed by Walter Obert, WunderWaffen is easy to learn, but presents a deep strategic experience, where every choice matters. For more information, visit the game’s page on the Ares Games website.
