## What is Murphy's Heroes Hurtgen Forest?

Murphy's Heroes: The Hurtgen Forest
WWII OCTOBER 1944: THE WESTERN FRONT

The U.S. Army regards the Hurtgen Forest as one of the most desperate battles it has ever fought. Along the Belgian Border, flanking the key German city of Aachen, Hürtgenwald's dark dense woods, shrouded in fog and laced with German mines and fortifications, was one of the most formidable defensive areas along the West Wall. Many who entered the Hurtgen Forest would never leave...

MURPHY's HEROES: THE HURTGEN FOREST is a unique turn-based skirmish level combat game that puts you in command of a band of Sgt. Murphy's 'Combat Happy Dogfaces' of the 1st Infantry's Easy Company at the early stages of the Battle of the Hurtgen Forest.

ENTER THE FOREST FROM HELL...

Striking fully Animated 3D Graphics, Immersive Sound and Special Effects, all combine in a Skirmish Level game that's as personal as it gets, to bring a sense of immediacy and danger to every mission. 

Dense woods, limited sighting and enemy detection, mines, grenades, smoke, and fiercely defended fighting positions await!

At least you've got 'The Sarge'... and a Medic!

NOTHING's EASY IN EASY COMPANY

With any given action, enemy reaction can seem immediate or concurrent.

While staying true to turn-based mechanics (no twitch game here), the game's random command activation system will at times make it feel as though you're playing more of a real time strategy game.

Skirmish level WWII action with a turn-based system that keeps you involved instead of putting you to sleep.

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2021-05-17, version 1.52*

I play on an iPad. This game is a lot of fun. It’s has good graphics and immersion. At first I wished the camera would zoom out a little more but once you play you realize that helps with the feel of not knowing what’s out there. I really enjoy it and if you like turn based tactical I think you will too. Especially for just a few dollars!

### 2/5 — Needs Work

*2021-02-24, version 1.52*

This game needs work.
It is not smooth, at all.
It has lag and since I'm not playing against a human player there's really no excuse for that.
There should also be an option to turn the map to any perspective you want to.
I'm sorry I spent $3 on this game.
