The game adds to what was available from SPI with optional units, editable capabilities and many different scenarios and campaign games. Editing capabilities allow you to create your own scenarios and campaign start points. However, the overall impression is of a package that's still in beta. There are annoying glitches (although you can work around them) and advertised features that don't work. I think this is a game that DG has basically abandoned; the last patch was 1.2.18 (not 1.2.15 as this website claims), but there is so much more to fix. Recommendation: if you're really into big games, buy it and prepare to discover all its quirks, but don't expect that DG will ever fix any of them.

I will start by saying this was my favorite board game, back in the day. I never had enough money to buy the War in the Pacific and join them. In fact, it is a dream that DG will do so for an updated digital version. Besides money, I would have had no space to spread all the maps.
I would give this a 5 except there is a game stopping bug. The screen resolution prevents certain buttons from being accessed. Specifically, to accept French air point reinforcements, one needs to press a button, which is impossible, no matter how I change the resolution. The game cannot proceed.
The only work around is to start the game after France has fallen. But that takes away the beginning part of the war. Also, I would like there to be more options and variety in production and start the game a few years earlier and not have a hard stop in 1945. There should not be a counter limit in a computer game either. Some thoughts for a great game.
