About

Welcome commander, you are now in power of one of the biggest nuclear superpowers of the world. So choose your steps carefully, it’s a small path between war and peace.

First Strike is a fast paced real time strategy game which makes dropping the big one as easy as ABC. But be sure to take the right measures to guarantee your people’s safety.

Pick one of the big nuclear players – from known superpowers like the USA to an upstart hellraiser like North Korea – and plan your strategy wisely: Expand to other countries, build bombs or debuild in order to restructure your arsenal. Or use research to gain access to new nuclear technology, better recon intel, automated self-defense-sequences and many more.

Whether you’re a bloodthirsty warmonger or a tree-hugging hippie – it’s time to put your cards on the table. First Strike shows you how little it takes to heat things up. You control the destiny of the precious and vulnerable rock floating through space, the rock we call mothership Earth.

 So, will you be the one remaining when the whole world blows to smithereens?

First Strike: Final Hour reviews and comments

Product received for free Terribly boring, unimaginative clicker game (without what's standing for "Clicker" here ... No is also "Strategy." What a word Wit! Such a terrible Game! Thought that goes in the Direction of the good old "Nuclear War"-you could have got so much out of it. Despite Review-Key, there is certainly no Video of this, and there is also a bad Rating on top of it. (Seriously wonder where all the Reviews come from, which are overturning here with Praise) Rating: Grits-and full Program

Frankly, if you want an ultra complete game with mass functionalities go your way. On the other hand if you are looking for a game simpa which requires a little reflection while still being enough simple bennnn it's super cool. The principle? Full of small Territories, must choose when to expand when to increase its arsenal when tapping on others, when to be diplomats.... Everything is in the reflection and frankly in 2H I was not disappointed or bored at one time despite the fact that it is repetitive. It's original and simple, I recommend it!

Where is the best place to start, perhaps, that it is a matter of destroying the World Nations. So the Game itself even if only Single Player is against AI is a lot of Fun even if in a Match maybe 960 Million virtual People let her live to the Mechanics in the Game when you have it out, the control Is made really easy. There are not many "Normal" Weapons, but all the more "Super Weapons" There are enough Nations to choose. But in the Beginning there are only 4 to Choose from all the others you have to unlock by playing the 4 Nations. The Game is also available for Android and IOS What else to mention is that for all Hardcore Players there are Shortcuts for almost everything. You don't have to use them but to be faster definitely. So all round for a Singing player Game for €12 I'd say a slick 8/10

Too many bugs for parts that last long enough (30min minimum up to more than 1h for higher difficulties). The worst of the bugs and the one or the end of the game your victory is not displayed and you stay with only your nation on the planet after hard annihilates all the others and you say "Ah still 1h of game for nothing". I already win 7 games of which 3 so did not were validated by this bugs. Very discouraging so... You also have the bugs of the silo that does not appear and the bug or you can not rotate the planet to see your different countries. These last 2 bugs are frequent but present from the beginning of the game, so just relaunch another. In general I have to run 3 game before I have any of these two last bugs. For the victory that does not fire it is lucky luck. To finish the game remains very fast repetitively after 1-2H we start already bored. This is the kind of game that we find on Smartphone and it is clearly not worth this price even if it was absent from these bugs that we completely wasting the pleasure of playing.
