As yet only a small number of game designers have been brave enough to venture into the Vietnam genre. At first when thinking about it it’s hard to see why – surely basing a game on such a huge conflict would be an extremely good idea.

Expect this from the outset. The game centres on Steve Hawkins, who has been transferred to the Nui Pek Special Forces basecamp, a few miles from the cambodian border. It is here where the immersive nature of the gameplay begins. Steve has his bunker, but this is as close to a rest as you ...
