Wargames
Wargames are precisely what the name says: games which simulate war or war-like situations. Wargames are often mechanically dense, granular representations of a single conflict which focus around area control. They are noted for frequently making use of hidden information and asymmetrical player positions to more accurately represent the conflict in question. For a better understanding of what makes wargaming special, please read our board gamer’s guide to wargaming.
One Hour World War 2 from Worthington Publishing delivers a legitimate wargame experience in under 60 minutes. Check out our review for the details.
