The wait is over for fans of hardcore, historically accurate strategy games as Strategic Mind: Spirit of Liberty releases today on PC via Steam. Developed by Starni Games and published by Hyperstrange, this title promises to immerse players in intricate World War II scenarios.
Command Finnish Forces in Historically Accurate Campaigns
In Strategic Mind: Spirit of Liberty, you’re not just clicking away; you’re making history. The game places you in command of Finnish forces defending against invading Soviet and Axis troops. Through intense turn-based isometric gameplay, players get to relive the Winter War, Continuation War, and Lapland War. Alternatively, explore an alternative timeline featuring “what-if” scenarios.
Tactical Brilliance Over Sheer Numbers
Although outnumbered, the game provides avenues for strategic advantages through perfect positioning and line-of-sight. Real-world landmarks and objectives on both small and large maps amplify the strategic depth.
Resource Management and Squad Upgrades
Gather your resources and optimize your Finnish armies with the latest in wartime technology. Leveling up squadrons allows for new skill unlocks, further enhancing your tactical edge. Equip molotov cocktails for close encounters and anti-armor rifles for those pesky enemy tanks. You can also commandeer Soviet vehicles to add to your arsenal.
Air Support and Special Equipment
Call in British Bombers, Dutch Fokkers, and US fighter planes to tip the scales in your favor. Utilize reconnaissance for pre-battle planning and incendiary shells to maximize damage.
Meet the Legends
Interact with historical figures like Simo Häyhä, the deadliest sniper in WW2, and Finnish leaders like Baron Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim and Risto Heikki Ryti. Over 60 minutes of cinematics offer an authentic look into the Finnish perspective of the war.
