## What is Attentat 1942?

A World War II game through the eyes of survivors.

Attentat 1942 is a historically-accurate adventure told through the eyes of World War 2 survivors. Many moral dilemmas and existential struggles await you on your way to discover the troubled past of your family. Written and made by professional historians.

“It captivates from start to finish by humanising history brilliantly.”
Rock Paper Shotgun 

It's 1942 and Reinhard Heydrich, the ruler of the Nazi occupied Czech lands appointed by Hitler, was assassinated. Nazi retaliation was brutal. Your grandpa was among the victims, sent to a concentration camp. But why? What role did he play in the attack? Why didn’t he tell his family? Was he brave or reckless?

“It can be praised for exploring an aspect and setting of a famous conflict that most games wouldn’t touch on.”
Critical Hit 

Immerse yourself in a story about love, friendship and heroism among the horrors of a world conflict. Confront witnesses, experience the everyday life under Nazi rule and uncover the fate of your family in this award-winning game about World War II.

“If like me, you have a love of history, Attentat 1942 will be a treasure not only for a fresh perspective on a widely reported period of time but also for the amount of work that you can see the developers put into making sure their story fit within the confines of history.”

### 1/5 — Not working on Mac M1 Max on Ventura

*2022-12-04*

Just totally freezes after the very first interaction with Grandma and the radio - unusable.

### 4/5 — Quality game

*2022-02-05*

A really good concept for a game as it allows you to learn about the impact of Nazi occupation on the Czechs without putting you in any awkward or tasteless positions. Learned a lot of real historical detail from the fact files. Drawings/design was excellent. 4 stars because there wasn’t a lot of game play / puzzles, it was mainly focused on finding out info. But definitely worth playing if you are interested in the period at all.

### 5/5 — Beautiful, moving story

*2021-07-13*

The mix of film, photography and illustration really brings this story to life. I found this a fascinating and well told historical mystery. The additional information in the Encyclopaedia was so well done too. Can’t recommend this highly enough.

### 4/5 — Sehr gutes Thema,

*2020-08-15*

leider läuft das Spiel recht langsam auf meinem iPhone X, wenn ich eine Spielsequenz wiederhole, um mehr Infos zu bekommen, kann ich zwar einige Videos überspringen, die gezeichneten Szenen mit den Sprechblasen muss ich jedoch wieder in voller Länge anschauen und das ist wirklich ermüdend, zumal das Spiel echt langsam ist. Und das Spiel ist auch sehr kurz (in 2 Std. 15 Min. durchgespielt). Schade

### 5/5 — Super Game über eine grausame Zeit der deutschen Besatzung

*2020-08-09*

Ein sehr gut gemachtes Spiel über ein unfassbares Stück tschechischer Geschichte während der deutschen Besatzungszeit.
Historisch akkurat aufbereitet und umgesetzt.
Auch wenn wir vermeintlich schon alles über die Zeit des Nationalsozialismus wissen: dieses Spiel sollte jeder kennen und gespielt haben.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for heartwarming review. We are glad you find our work interesting, especially the historically-accurate aspect, since a lot of work went into that. All the best, Ondřej

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-07-31*

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the review and kind words. We're happy players on the other side of the ocean find our game interesting. Best Regards, Ondřej
