Review:

Although this looks quite simple, it is actually a complex simulation. Presentation is top-notch, from the clear graphics to smooth scrolling and an accurate map of Western Europe.

The icing on the cake is the easy to use interface that allows for some quite complex actions to be performed. Even the delay whilst the enemy moves actually works in building up the tension.
