I lived cold war…through video games

We wrote down here a List of Notorious Wargames released upon the “real” contest contended in Wargames,

leaving out the hacking theme of how to get in a “WOPR”

DEFCON by Introversion Software (29 Sept.2006)

DEFCON is a real-time strategy game created by independent British game developer Introversion Software.The gameplay is reminiscent of the “big boards” that visually represented thermonuclear war .You play the role of a military Commander hidden deep within an Underground bunker. Your mission – to successfully exterminate your enemy’s civilian population whilst disabling their ability to attack your own. Start by launching your battleships, subs and bombers in order to decimate your opponent’s defences. Scramble together your alliances but remember only one can stand victorious.

Nuclear War

is a single player turn-based strategy game developed by New World Computing and released for the Amiga in 1989. It presents a satirical, cartoonish nuclear battle between five world powers, in which the winner is whoever retains some population when everyone else on earth is dead.

The introduction includes a homage to Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.

Each player – one human, four computer-controlled – is represented by a caricature of a national leader. If there is a computer-controlled winner at the end of the game, that leader is depicted jumping for joy in the middle of a blasted wasteland, crowing “I won! I won!”. If the player wins only the highscore board is shown.

Nuclear War Remake

NetNuclear is a freeware TCP/IP multiplayer remake of the classic 1989 computer game Nuclear War by New World Computing, Inc. The original game was released for Commodore Amiga and DOS, which are both obsolete systems today. That, plus the fact that the original game was single player only, gave me the idea of remaking the game for modern systems in portable C code using SDL for graphics, sound and network functions, and throwing in multiplayer support for extra fun! The game can be played against up to four opponents, which can be computer opponents, human opponents or both at the same time.

NetNuclear is currently available for Win32 only.
