Cities of the Damned: Aachen and Cassino is a thrilling solo board game that drops you into the midst of two of World War II's most intense battles. As the Allied forces, you'll need to navigate the challenges of taking down two heavily fortified German strongholds - the town of Cassino in Italy and the city of Aachen in Germany.

With its solo gameplay and simulation mechanics, Cities of the Damned: Aachen and Cassino offers a unique and challenging experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat. As a wargame set in World War II, it's perfect for fans of historical battles and strategic gameplay, and with its release in 2024, it's a fresh take on one of history's most pivotal conflicts.
