Subwar 2050
 
Anybody remember this game back in the early and mid 90's? Futuristic mercenary submarine combat. Part submarine simulator, part flight sim. It had a large variety of missions, and there was alot of emphasis on stealth. My favorite mission was the campaign working for the ersatz Greenpeace and collecting fish specimens without being detected.

I did not have it back in the days, but I recall that it was there and that I wanted it. :)

It was a fun sci-fi simulation that was like a flight sim but was more about stealth than acrobatics. You can still get it from Good Old Games to run in Dosbox.



I'd like to see Killerfish or similar indie developer try to make a remake. Maybe change it from a linear, scripted campaign to something like Mechwarrior 2, where you have randomized mercenary missions interspersed with a wider story arc. Also, with more modern hardware we could have better sonar models than what could be offered in the early 90's.
