Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter and New Campaign
over 4 years ago – Wed, Jun 24, 2020 at 02:02:35 PM

Marines!

It's been over a year since the premiere of U-Boot: The Board Game, and Iron Wolf Studio has decided on a new, ambitious project. Currently, they are developing Destroyer: U-Boat Hunter which is a 100% digital PC game. All fans of the innovative board game about the Battle of the Atlantic will find themselves immersed in the theme and once again will be able to experience an amazing underwater adventure.

We also have more plans for U-Boot and we are not leaving it behind. We are currently looking into translating our app into Greek, and we are also discussing the game’s future in order to see how it can evolve and how we can keep making it better.

We are currently also working on Polish translation of rulebook 1.2

Campaign for a new war game: Domination

In addition, it is worth mentioning another game that tells the story of World War II. However, it is not limited to the cold waters of the Atlantic, but reaches the four corners of the world and encompasses the entire conflict, which can be played in 90 minutes. 

The game will allow players to fight on land, in the seas and oceans, and in the air. Not only the iron will to fight will be needed to win, but also team play and clever development of technology.

Moreover! U-Boots are hidden in the stretch goals! Don't miss another history lesson and pure pleasure!

Hello everyone!

A year has passed since the arrival of "U-Boot: The Board Game" to your gaming tables, and many of you have already shared your opinions, experiences, and photos from the games. We're very happy about the rating the game is getting, your kind words and just the fact that you liked the game - what could be a better reward for someone’s work?

Now you have a chance to nominate the game for the Golden Geek Award, which is possibly the largest democratic industry award. We would be extremely grateful if you could nominate for U-boot in the appropriate categories. And then vote for it, once the voting is open. We believe that the designers of "U-Boot" deserve it.

Thank you for your support and stay safe,
