Default Nuclear War [SOLD]

I have been looking for this game for quite a while. I think it was called Nuclear War or maybe Thermonuclear War. But it was tongue-in-cheek. You picked a leader (Reagan, Thatcher, Castro) and then use missles, propaganda etc. to deplete the polpulations of other countries and build up your own. The box cover had a bikini-clad woman and a mushroom cloud on it. Did I hallucinate this game? Please Help!

Sounds cool. Especially if it has Thatcher in it- all of the politics sims I've found so far are totally US-oriented (apart from one or two soviet ones, and Yes Prime Minister, which isn't quite the same thing).

Anyway, I too would be very interested if someone can track this one down.

It was called Nuclear War. You can install an Amiga emulator (like UAE) and get the game from here:

Dunno about a PC version.

There is a DOS PC version. I played and enjoyed that game years ago.

Sadly I don't remember where I got it and I don't have a copy.

This game is not worth 1$, even less 14,95. That's really trying to steal good money from honest people.

This game is a nice time killer, but is easily under average in about everything. I would not consider purchasing it ever.

Amiga games aren't sold anymore at all though, so if your conscience is bugging you, always download the Amiga version instead.

if you like that game you should check out a game called Superpower. I forgot what company it was but it is one of those 10$ Wal-mart games. It may have been DreamCatcher but im not sure.
