====================

Escalation is a downward spiral.

A nuclear armageddon is no one’s dream scenario. So choose your steps carefully, it’s a small path between war and peace. FIRST STRIKE is a great strategy simulation featuring snappy gameplay and an intuitive interface that 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 to an upstart hellraiser like North Korea – and plan your strategy wisely: Limited but clever options let you as the leader of your superpower steer your nation’s fate: Expand to other countries, build bombs or debuild in order to restructure your arsenal. Or use research to widen your options, such as: Ability to act quicker and build bigger bombs, better recon on your enemies actions, 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. A quick and fun game with beautiful graphics, FIRST STRIKE shows you how little it takes to heat things up. With the tip of your finger you can control the destiny of the precious and vulnerable rock floating through space, the rock we call mothership Earth.

    A very good game

    I’ve been playing first strike for years. I have all the super weapons and all the countries unlocked. I love the game I usually play it everyday because I don’t have much to do on a virtual school day. Ever since it got fixed the game has been running smoothly everything works the restart button the quit button everything. One thing I do have a problem with is when you have an an enemy on 2 sides. Like when I’m Europe the United States and China are in the game, they will only target me. That and how long the ads are when you wanna instantly do the research. Also a tip for anybody who wants to research but the ads take too long what you can do is press on one of your territory’s and then watch the ad. That way the game slows down s lot. That also goes for the research and building of the super weapons. With so many other counties maybe you can add some to the game like maybe Canada, Turkey, Mexico, just giving examples. Also I can’t wait for March 10th I saw the update video First Strike Developers, have a fantastic day/night 👍

    游戏建议

    Hi, I have a suggestion for First Strike, a free Chinese version of the APP Store in China. Suggested that the Chinese version of the game for free, can have a multiplayer game mode such as online networking is not a computer, but the real players to interact with the players of the game and play, also suggest to add more fun game model, and the content, including more game state as more countries will make the game more fun at the same time to optimize the game map to countries or regions become more stereoscopic 3 d, etc., and the store account because the game is not a account to log in, this game account set and there is no way to store the clouds, It will cause the problem of losing data when adding again after uninstalling the game. I hope it can be improved. It is also suggested to set up game servers in Melbourne, Australia and Canberra, as well as In Beijing, China. These are my current Suggestions. At the same time, it can speed up the update of all game versions in APP Store in China. Thank you very much! 0.0

    Amazing

    I have never given a game 5 stars before but this definitely deserves it. I’m lost for words with this game. It’s so much fun and the only ads you get are when you win/lose or when you watch a ad for a little push in a direction. I recommend very highly to anyone that sees this to play this game. I spent almost 30 minutes in a match and the only ad I got was when I won. There is only one requests 1. It would be fun if there was a sandbox because then you can see what happens if you hit Africa with 50 tsar bombas. Other that that it’s a amazing game

    Awesome game, just a few bugs.

    I really love this game it’s a great strategy game and it gets my adrenaline going. That being said, whenever you complete a game or win it, the game just stops. Like it freezes. There’s no screen telling you that you’ve won or that you progress in any way. Also there’s no way to quit the game the button simply doesn’t work. Otherwise I like the game and I’m able to overlook those issues even though they are significant things that need to be fixed, it isn’t game breaking.

    That very good potential

    I absolutely love this game but it’s kind of broken. First some of the tech levels are really low I would unlock a new place and the tech levels would be bad so I won’t use it . Second it won’t let me use hardcore mode and It makes it hard when I’m trying to do the objectives . Third I don’t know why I can’t play in Kazakhstan it shows it like I have it unlocked and it won’t let me play. Overall I love this game and I hope there will be more to this game in the near future.

    I don’t know where to start!

    As the title suggests I don’t know where to start, I don’t know how anyone could give this game a bad rating! The ads aren’t ridiculous, Every bug I can think of has been patched, I receive emails which aren’t spammy, and are very unique ways of introducing their other game stellar commanders which I unfortunately don’t own, And I generally can’t tell anyone how good the game is, With my interest this game and I are a match made in nuclear heaven! So if you’re reading this, Just try it out ☢️☢️

    Awesome Game, But some problems.

    Hi! I have played this game for over 2 years now!! I love seeing the development of the game, and wish for it’s best. It is a very fun and interactive strategy game. However, There are some features and problems I would like to report. 1. On some mobile devices (yes I use more then 1 device to play, this game is too good :D) Like LG, When you load a game, sometimes the diplomacy window is messed up, and cannot leave/make pact. (I wont talk about crashing, because it rarely happens.) Now for suggestions. Maybe you can join another pact? I always wanted this idea to be true, and also, can you make some more nations, like Japan. Also, I would LOVE if you could make some more conquest available. When I first played Western Europe, I wanted to go to Africa, but couldn’t. And lastly, Maybe you could make Alaska an area too? It’s missing. That’s all, If you read this, Thanks, And I wish you a good week!

    Great Game, but with a Fatal Flaw

    So, this game is one of the most intense, yet poetic games to date. The message it portrays is so true: War is a dangerous game, the only way to win is to not play at all. The controls are revolutionary. The only problem is (Ahem, Devs) is that you can’t unlock new nations or super weapons. You have to beat certain game modes as specific countries to unlock super weapons and countries. However, after you win a game, for the first few times it takes you to a screen displaying casualties, how many megatons of explosives, etc. But after that, it doesn’t take you the screen, leaving you in the theatrical segment that it always displays before the screen, but it does not take you there. Ever. So, after you win, you are forced to quit the game, therefore destroying the achievements you would have gotten. Therefore, you cannot progress in the game.

    Good game some issues

    To begin it’s a good game all in all. But there are some issues. So let’s start off with the weird day night cycle. I don’t see any reason for it and it makes it impossible to see your territory and your enemies. Next thing. There are more weapons then just Cruisers IRBMs and ICBMs. There are land forces maybe not the best against a nuke but they still make a difference. 3rd and final thing I noticed is at some point your just stomping on the remains of a nation which brings me back to the weird day night cycle thing you can’t see anything.

    Really Fun Game, but Common Crashing

    I enjoy his game, the gameplay is great and the objectives are pretty fun to work towards. Sometimes you click and the screen doesn’t seem to take the click, which may mess up something in the game. The largest issue I face is the crashing that I've been experiencing. I’ll be researching multiple things and the game crashes and doesn’t save a single thing. This is frustrating, but it’s still fun to get back into it and work towards what you finished with.

    Good game but quite glitchy

    I’m not sure if this is just my experience, but this game glitches A LOT. Trying to quit back to the menu during a game hasn’t worked for me once, the continue from a game sometimes works but doesn’t always, and sometimes the pacts stuff stops working. If this doesn’t happen to anyone else then Idk what’s wrong with my game. Overall I really enjoy the game but the glitches make it frustrating at best.



  • By Minebro8

    Needs Fixing

    First off, this is an amazing game. Very addicting and fun. Although, the controls are a bit finicky and the text is hard to read. I never get a victory screens d I need to read tart the app to get back to the main menu. And the difficulties seem a bit off. The regular game modes are too easy. Even North Korea with the difficulty being impossible was an easy task. But hardcore mode seems almost impossible to beat. My suggestion would be make the regular game modes a tad bit harder and make hardcore a tad bit easier, because it’s hard to have fun when you win only having to fire 10 nukes on regular, or having to fend off 20 nukes every 30 seconds on hardcore.

    Lost it’s shine

    The game was amazing when I first downloaded it and still is, but I’ve noticed that for some reason there’s been way too many bugs even after their last update. I’ve won as every country (except for hardcore mode), and after that once I win a game that I play just cause I’m bored, the game doesn’t end properly. It’s just stuck showing the revolving planet. Not that I’m complaining about it but the ads the ads that give you a bit of a boost are also not available for some reason. Look the games still really good if you’re downloading for the first time, but it used to be much more smooth.



  • By gamerthegame

    Broken

    This game glitches after the match is over keeping you stuck on a screen with a view of the world. You are unable to exit. You can not restart the game once you have started one, you click yes and it does nothing. You try to exit the game while you are playing and you click yes to exit and it does nothing. I also sometimes get glitches that do not allow me to build rockets only research and expand. It pains me to write this because I want to love this game. If these problems were fixed and the company put more effort into fixing these problems instead of the “ we are very busy with other projects, we are a small company” excuse I would have no problem forking over cash for it.
