The story in "Cuban Missile Crisis" is set against a backdrop of strategic military conflict, featuring a mix of scenario-based missions and emergent situations that revolve around capturing and defending key resources. While the overarching narrative is deemed interesting, many players find the missions repetitive and lacking depth, with some criticizing the absence of a compelling storyline and the reliance on linear objectives. Despite these shortcomings, the game offers a complex tactical experience that rewards careful planning and resource management, appealing to dedicated strategy enthusiasts.
“The idea of tactic and strategy mode is very nice and interesting; the use of the engine from Blitzkrieg I is okay, and the story is interesting, along with the climate.”
“However, each mission (even the auto-generated ones) if played out is a fun tactical puzzle to solve if you are a patient and thoughtful strategy gamer (and yes, it will punish you for even a single moment of rashness, just as real war so often would).”
“Except Cuban Missile Crisis is more complex with resource management, radiation-infested battlefields, choices of aviation, authentic units, a better story, better sound, and doesn't contain generic cliché characters that you'll get annoyed with in the first hour of the game.”
“Mediocre game real-time strategy, WW2 theme with a 'what if' scenario, fights between Germany/France/America/UK/Russia/China, no decent storyline whatsoever, just random very repetitive battles and objectives.”
“Overall, Cuban Missile Crisis squanders its premise with a series of odd design choices, bland repetitive missions, and the frustration of watching carefully husbanded resources getting slaughtered as they try to cross a bridge.”
“But the missions that are not scenarios are all the same with the only variation being different units present, and a slightly different map.”
