Making History: The Calm and the Storm

"Making History is an interesting, though dry, turn-based World War II strategy game."

"Making History is really stuck between two target markets. On the one hand, the Hearts of Iron crowd will find that Making History isn't complex enough. On the other hand, the World at War fans will find that Making History gets bogged down in too many unnecessary details. Your own reaction to the game will depend on whether or not you're looking for something meatier than you've seen in other strategy games. While the level of detail and the presentation are genuinely enjoyable here, the lack of a competitive AI or any readily available online opponents mean that anyone who might be interested in a game this dense will likely find it to be a bit too easy. You could handicap yourself by playing Italy, of course, but that's only going to last so long."
