Description

Victory in the Pacific is a strategic wargame that drops you into the Pacific Theater of World War 2, where you'll battle for control of 13 sea areas. The game is easy to learn, with simple rules that let you dive right into the action. As one of two players, you'll move your ships, air, and marines around the board, trying to outmaneuver your opponent and gain the upper hand. The game is all about area control, with patroller ships trying to take and hold territory, while raiders try to disrupt their plans. Battles are decided by dice rolls, with day battles favoring air power and night battles relying on ship-to-ship combat. The Japanese player often takes an early lead, but the Americans can turn the tide with their powerful carriers. With a playtime of around 300 minutes, Victory in the Pacific is a epic struggle for dominance in the Pacific.
