The lack of different colour tones and the deep depressing music followed by the realization of that this could've happened is what makes this game depressing. But fun
Ridiculously dark-humoured game with some fantastic ambience ! Seriously, the music and sound effects gave me utter chills... Genuinely creepy atmosphere and a nice satire on actual nuclear war.
@ReturnOfJackDawson i think he's referring to the WarGames references, like 'How about a nice game of chess?' Also in the instructions booklet there's what looks like an official government pamphlet, which includes such useful information as 'In the event of nuclear war bombs will detonate every two minutes for the next thirty seconds.' Basically it's as insane as the people who wrote the original civil defense booklets.
The soundtrack to this game is one explosive eargasm.

It's not about who loses, it's about who loses the least.

Just listening to this and thinking about gameplay makes me scared to think about what could have happened in the 60s and 70s...

@ZemplinTemplar can you please explain to me what you mean by dark humoured? i actually didn't notice any sort of humor about that game.
