Defcon 1
DEFCON 1 is a strategic wargame set during the Cold War from 1950 to 1990, where players control five asymmetric blocs — from NATO to China — vying for global dominance. The gameplay adapts to player count, shifting from tense two-player frontal conflict to multi-sided games of secret objectives and semi-cooperative alliances. Players navigate R&D, political influence, atomic escalation, and military production in a historically grounded simulation of Cold War brinkmanship.
