WWII UBoat Submarine Commander

[Niedowidek]

Have you seen this? I hope I don't replicate a thread but quick look didn't reveal this game was mentioned lately.

It's released for mobile devices, has some in-game purchases and various sub types (German, American, Italian).

I haven't played it much yet but after a while it seems quite interesting.

It's orders driven. You don't choose exact course or speed neither plot torpedo solution. Instead, crew reports what's happening and asks for orders.

Engagement may look like this, a bit simplified by me:
- you choose sector on strategic map to move into
- view from u-boat's turm appears
- automatic search for ships commences (binoculars view but you have no control about it, binoculars just sweep from left to right and ship may appear or not)
- if ship spotted, options to attack surfaced, submerged or to not engage are provided
- game tells whether you surprised your target or not
- then choice of distance of the attack (short, medium, long) and weapon (gun, torpedo) and target (if there are more than one ship, I suppose, for now I have only found lone ship)
- game calculates if sub was seen during aproach
- game calculates if you have hit the target

Player may install improvements on his/her boat or train crew (choosing devices and skills to "buy").

The game was released in unfinished state as there are mostly no real in-game messages but rather rough labels like #ask_attack_break, #action_attack, #action_emerge and similar (it should be corrected but I must admit I like it, almost like playing from command line) ;-) It also not fully localized and English is mixed with, hmm, Spanish I think

Ads pop up when using free version but price for full game is really low.

But it seems promising. Not a hardcore sim but may be a pleasant and original game some day (when work is finished).
