The Stalingrad Campaign is a 1986 video game published by Simulations Canada.
The Stalingrad Campaign is a game in which the Southern Front of Russia from June 1942 to February 1943 is featured in a text-only simulation. [1]
Released in 1987, The Stalingrad Campaign was designed by Bill Nichols and published by Simulations Canada. [2]
M. Evan Brooks reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World , and stated that "Simulations Canada's hybrid of board and computer wargames is an interesting concept. While not part of the mainstream in either sphere, the company has staked out a small niche of dedicated gamers. The basic problem with board and counter assists to the computer is a space consideration. Most computer owners do not have the space next to their computer for easy accessibility." [1]
In Computer Gaming World's 1993 survey of computer wargames, The Stalingrad Campaign received a score of one star out of five. The magazine remarked that The Stalingrad Campaign "fails due to a poor interface, poor documentation, and the inability of the game to deliver any semblance of player participation." [2]
