Iwo Jima 1945 is a turn based strategy game which takes place on the Pacific Theater during the Second World War. (full paid version). From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011You are in command of the American Marine force seizing the tiny volcanic island of Iwo Jima in February 19th 1945 (Operation Detachment). The object of the game is to completely conquer this small and inhospitable island as quickly as possible to both prevent Japanese from using it to detect American bomber fleets, and to provide an emergency landing area for long-range US planes.This tiny volcanic island has been under heavy bombardment for months and American submarines have sunk most of Japanese supplies and reinforcements, so this is going to be the easiest and quickest mission yet!...unless the Japanese have fortified the entire island, dug over 10 miles of tunnels, located troops in the thousands of caves, built platforms to move their Artillery underground after firing, and prepared to die to the last man.FEATURES:+ Historical accuracy: Campaign mirrors the historical setup.+ Long-lasting: Thanks to in-built variation and the games smart AI technology, each game provides a unique war gaming experience.+ Competitive: Measure your strategy game skills against others fighting for the Hall of Fame top spots.+ Supports casual play: Easy to pick up, leave off, continue later.+ Challenging: Crush your enemy quickly and earn the bragging rights on the forum.+ Good AI: Instead of just attacking on direct line towards the target, the AI opponent balances between strategic goals and smaller tasks like encircling nearby units.+ Tablet friendly strategy game: Automatically scales the map for any physical screen size/resolution from small smartphones to HD tablets, while settings allow you to fine tune hexagon and font sizes.In order to be a victorious general in this strategy game, you must learn to coordinate your attacks in two ways. First, as adjacent units give support to an attacking unit, keep your units in groups in order to gain local superiority. Secondly, it is rarely the best idea to use brute force when it is possible to encircle the enemy and cut off its supply lines instead.Join your fellow strategy gamers in changing the course of the Second World War!Privacy Policy (full text on website and app menu): No account creation is possible, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any account and does not have password.

The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games. I want to thank the fans for all the well thought-out suggestions over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of. If you have advice on how to improve this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the stores comment system. In addition, because I have huge number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you. Thanks for understanding!+ Assigning replacements (+1 HP) to a unit is a bit easier (3 adjacent enemy hexagons allowed, but the severity of enemy-blocks-replacements depends on the Difficulty Level+ AI artillery might escape capture (happens less often than Generals escape)+ War Status includes list of currently requested resources+ HOF relocated to web (see dev-log for details)+ HOF cleared from the oldest scores+ AI: Improvements in front line coherence+ Added new military history quotations

Great game

Darren Coey

I like this game very much. It forces you to be tactically sound- if you are over aggressive, your troops will get cut off and encircled. The shrouded areas lends to the "fog of war" where you don't know what lies ahead of you. My one complaint is that you only have two view options for the map, zoomed in or zoomed out to show the whole island. It would be helpful if you can manually adjust the zoom level so you can view the map at the level you want.

Very good game, a version of which I first played on my Spectrum! I just love this game, especially how easy it is to just pick up, when I have a spare ten minutes! Highly recommended.

Pleasantly surprised, early turns don't take an hour. Just started tho Joni always has great depth. Value, realistic true war games.Finally getting past pretty steep learning curve .

Tired of dashing around Europe? Try the South Pacific for a realistic change in scenery. Loaded with the usual myriad options, but designed with the islands in mind. This game gives you a taste of what the Marines went through. Try differing strategies to beat the enemy, making the game last as long as you wish. Another fantastic creation, thanks!

Great turn based conflict game. Very similar to Avalon Hill games of my past. Very playable on my 7" tablet. Well worth the $. Best of this genre that I have seen so far. Great work.

Perry Horwich

Have most of Joni's games. Awesome game play and well put together. The couple of bucks is nothing and you'll have hours of fun. Try some of Joni's others...you won't be disappointed.
