All around me were people like me who spent their spare time reading soldier accounts of battles and poring over tactical maps of World War II. As an aging military history nerd, the attention to detail of the maps and guns as well as a welcoming community showing new players the ropes felt like coming home to a place I’d never been before.

I got into the game earlier this year and was immediately hooked. For other old farts like me who can’t cut it as a twitch pixel shooter, there are support and leadership roles that allow you to communicate with command and lead your squad into victory, or stay behind the frontlines and build defenses or vital resource gaining nodes needed for the war effort. To achieve success on the battlefield you need to work with your squad and the greater team at large and attack and defend together as an organized team or face swift defeat from the enemy. It’s not like deaths don’t matter, but you won’t win by simply being a better shooter. What separates Hell Let Loose from the glut of other World War II shooters is its adherence to realism as well as a focus on squad-based tactics as opposed to a kill-based scoring mechanic. 50 battles, Hell Let Loose puts you in the boots of the many soldiers on the ground, from infantry and machine gunners to engineers and squad leaders in what can only be described as epic battles.
