| Description: | A WW2 submarine sim based on the excellent German film of the same name. Having just recently played this I was pretty impressed. Better than most other sub sims avail on the Amiga. Nothing to do with game but if you ever go to Kiel in Germany visit the Naval Museum and you can go on a real WW2 U-Boat - it's amazing how small and cramped they really were. | ||
