Dumb
The game is designed to be un-winnable, no doubt to push the designer’s point of view. The problem is that it removes any fun from game play, and after several attempts becomes a passive sermon that nuclear war is bad (which we already knew). Waste of time.
Good game
This is a very good game based on true events. But why not allow for a second strike during radar suggesting that nuclear missiles were mid-air?
Firing your entire arsenal just to find out it was a false alarm? That should be in the game.

Too easy

Add a button that lets you fire back
Yeah it would definitely add more pressure and intensity if you could add a button that lets you fire back so that you would be in the shoes of the actual president having to make a choice either to fire back or sit it out on the assumption that's it's a false alarm
Possibly the greatest nuke game
I finally beat it. The game is really good at showing what would happen if nuclear war does happen or if we put all off hair trigger
Good game
This is a very good game based on true events. One suggestion though. When North Korea joins hair trigger then you should make them one of the countries instead of just U.S and Russia
Some of the links in news stories are outdated but other than that good game
Yea
Good game
It’s a good game but it’s really easy to beat. Get the economy going, make deal with Russia, boost the economy and reduce nuclear weapon until there is 0 nuclear weapon left. Then wait for the Russians to do the same. I wish there were more countries to play as, and more options too. Maybe make it so it includes ALL of the nuclear power. That would make the game more fun.

Finally beat it!!
Okay so after many failed attempts I finally got around to the happy ending of removing all nuclear warheads off hair trigger! To say the least, this game will leave you frustrated and you’ll feel amazing once you beat it. Love how they intertwined factual events into the game! You’ll enjoy it and learn a little something as well!

Very unrealistic
You will get attacked by 2030 every time. You cannot chose to strike first or counter attack. Pointless game.
Very fun game
It took me a while but I finally beat the game. Developers if you are reading this then good job!
More options
All what you can really do is take away nukes. Make it so we’re you can upgrade security system or defense system against mistakes and nukes and your own ability to launch nukes to. If alll kinda of stuff like is added I would be very happy and it would be a great stradegy game
Good Message, Ruined by Impossible Difficulty
The message is good, the difficulty is almost certainly impossible. Little more is learned from this app except frustration and a defeatist attitude.
If the game is able to be beaten, I’ll eat my words. But I’ve played it ten times with various different tactics and none of them worked out.
The issue is, if the game is saying “this is a problem that cannot be fixed”, there’s no incentive to play more than once and even less to try and resolve what is being presented by this app as an unsolvable crisis.

Great game highlighting real challenge
This is a great game that really highlights the dangers of the nuclear posture of the United States and Russia.
