**** - "A thought provoking and fast-paced strategy game" - pocketgamer
****½ - "An awesome game suited for casual and professional nukers alike" - appszoom
====================
Escalation is a downward spiral.
A nuclear armageddon is no one’s dream scenario. So choose your steps carefully, it’s a small path between war and peace. FIRST STRIKE is a great strategy simulation featuring snappy gameplay and an intuitive interface that makes dropping the big one as easy as ABC. But be sure to take the right measures to guarantee your people’s safety.
Pick one of the big nuclear players – from known Superpowers to an upstart hellraiser like North Korea – and plan your strategy wisely: Limited but clever options let you as the leader of your superpower steer your nation’s fate: Expand to other countries, build bombs or debuild in order to restructure your arsenal. Or use research to widen your options, such as: Ability to act quicker and build bigger bombs, better recon on your enemies actions, automated self-defense-sequences and many more.
Whether you’re a bloodthirsty warmonger or a tree-hugging hippie – it’s time to put your cards on the table. A quick and fun game with beautiful graphics, FIRST STRIKE shows you how little it takes to heat things up. With the tip of your finger you can control the destiny of the precious and vulnerable rock floating through space, the rock we call mothership Earth.

Bugged on hard core
Aug 29, 2018 So I set it on hard core playing as the U.S. after I shot the last nuke on the last enemy territory the game sort of froze in place. I could see everything and even attack I just couldn’t rotate the globe. So I turned it off and reopened it. It let me rotate the globe but there was no one on the map but me as the U.S. and now I don’t get to claim my victory...:( please fix this. It’s a great game I would love to see some expansions as well. Potentially the ability to actually cause damage to the earth itself? Maybe ground troops to invade nearby countries? There’s a lot of potentialmore -
Dec 16, 2020 Great game. "Would you like to play a game?" 😂 However I've rated 3 stars as the continue saved game does not work. A game takes a while and requires focus, so not being able to resume a game in action is bad. If you leave the app running in background and go back to it it's fine. Also I won the game and it froze, gutted as I started as NK hard mode. I've posted the same review in the free version as I guess it's the same.more -
Fantastic game to spend 15 minutes on.. or hours.
Feb 27, 2018 Love this game, but wanted to let the dev know I encountered a strange bug. I was playing as North Korea trying to get the Oceania achievement and I had captured every single territory on the map except the final piece of Australia, which was held by what was left of China. So I used my infiltrators to take that spot, it froze for a second, said I unlocked Australia, then was just locked in place. I could fire missiles, use powers, and see that everyone was dead in the diplomacy menu, but I couldn’t move the globe and it wouldn’t say I won. I quit and loaded the save, then it said I unlocked Israel and I could spin the globe, but it still didn’t give me the “You Won” screen, instead I was just able to look around and fire missiles and stuff. It still gave me the rewards in the menu and said I had beaten it with N.Korea, but I just thought it was a strange bug.more -
Really good game. Online play available?
Aug 29, 2018 This is a complex game that is easy and fun to play. I love games like these, where you learn from your mistakes in order to get better next time. I figured out a strategy early on in the game when I lost every match: create pacts first, expand, research with land locked nations, build cruisers until you obtain your super weapons. Once you obtain your super weapons, shift to a more aggressive stance and start your attack! I’m sure others have figured out their own way of success. If I were to make a suggestion, please make online gameplay available or maybe create different modes like team death match, scenarios(build as much nukes before an asteroid hits) etc. really fun concept, really fun game.more -
Needs Final Hour
Jul 12, 2017 This game is pretty good I must say, but it is lacking in comparison to its much more advanced twin on PC. There is really no reason why you can't bring Final Hour to IOS, so why not do it? Also, maybe some nerfs and buffs need to be placed in on some of the super weapons. The Cobalt bomb, the Tsar bomb, the Laser Satellite, and the Air Defense Dome are all quite underwhelming when you compare them to the other, much better super weapons. The Stealth Bomber and the Infiltrator are a completely different story, as they are both game winners that your enemy can't do anything about. Basically it's "Tap a country, wait 5 seconds, this country is now dead/in your command, wait 5 seconds, repeat.more
-
Dec 16, 2020 About halfway through the game, it gets to the point that it freezes just as the last country is defeated. No more enemies to eliminate, but no win. There is a button in the menu that appears to allow you to continue a previous game, but it doesn't work. I've lost the progress of the last 3 games I played because of this. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work.more -
Nov 29, 2020 I love this game BUT it doesn't work on my tablet and all of my saved progress gone. Honestly, I'm more upset about it not working on my tablet then anything else. Was looking forward to playing this on a much bigger screen. Issues included, not being able to rotate the globe, not being able to zoom in, not being able to make alliances and so on. I am basically stuck. Very disappointing.more -
Nov 15, 2020 This used to be my favorite game to play to kill time, and it really keeps you thinking on how to strategize, but I hate how the game doenst save your progress anymore; so if you leave the app, and come back, you have to start all over.more -
Major click fest
Sep 25, 2017 Game can be fun but can be infuriating due to it being a click fest most of the time. Basically if you choose a more difficult nation you can expect the computer players to primarily just launch missiles at you and you'll essentially just be clicking to keep your missiles re-upped plus having to defend territories that are building new missiles. It gets annoying. Also there are some end of game bugs where it doesn't record victories or defeats. Lastly sometimes inexplicably you won't be able to defend a site, you touch a territory and its options don't come up and so you just watch the missile hit your territory. All in all not a terrible game but also kind of brain dead clicking.more -
Needs a REAL set of instructions
May 1, 2018 This game could’ve been so much better, if the developers had simply invested in a real set of instructions. Apparently, they think that their controls are inherently intuitive. But they are NOT. The research option is a specially opaque. I can never tell if I have chosen a research direction, or if it’s just telling me what it’s doing - it’s very stupid. Also, why on earth do you have to do research by each country? It is needlessly complicated. Also, they never explain the controls at the bottom. What did they do? How does it work? Essentially, I am learning the game by trial and error. Or, perhaps I should say that I WAS learning the game that way – I am done now… Waste of money.more

Nov 29, 2020 I've had the game for months, and have done a lot, it'd a good game to play both short and quick or if you want to take your time, theirs a progression system just wish the solar laser did more damage -
Suggestion
Mar 13, 2018 I love this game so much! I’ve been playing this game practically since it came out! There’s always been 2 things that have bugged me however that I thought you might take into consideration. Maybe it was your choice to not have Alaska owned by the US, or maybe you couldn’t make it happen somehow. Either way, I think that would make it harder for Russia, as they are too easy to play as. Also, I think it would really be cool if Hawaii was added as somewhere to expand to, or already be owned by the US. Whether it is accessed through New Guinea, Japan, or the west coast of America is up to you, but I think it would surely spice things up if China, North Korea or Australia could all of a sudden expand into North America through the Pacific! Maybe these suggestions didn’t help, but what I’d like you to know is that I love your game and so do a lot of my friends! Thank you for your consideration!more

Dec 7, 2020 Overall the game is fun, controls good, and easy to get used too. I think it would be exciting if they added mutiplayer mode. It wold be great to destroy friends. -
Very fun game but has flaws
Jul 26, 2017 I absolutely love playing this game when I have no internet, and it's a great way to pass time. However, there is one issue that you need to fix as it's becoming pretty annoying. Every time I do the objective that unlocks Brazil, when I come back on the game later, it didn't save that objective so I can't play as Brazil. This is getting very annoying, as I'm sick of completing that objective over and over again. Also, if you could add multiplayer, that would be great. But overall, this is a very fun game.more -
Nov 30, 2020 I like it, but I'd rate 3 stars if I wasn't so nice coz I play hardcore mode all the time and all the nations go after me at the same time, and I think that in reality the nations wouldn't all just stop and go after South Africa or Brazil like come on guys... Also the game crashes sometimes...more -
Good game but needs fixes
Dec 13, 2017 One of my favorite games to play on my phone and the addition of final hour is cool but the hd graphics can get very blurry and sometimes it’s hard to read things and after the update it seems the sensitivity went down and is much more stiff to play maybe an option is to make a setting for it and I also think the game needs a multiplayer mode, maybe by same WiFi connection or even Bluetooth. This is still a great app and the new super weapons are fun to use.more

Total click fest, not RTS
May 13, 2019 Game is a little fun, however don’t expect this to be a strategy game with calculated decisions, there’s very little strategy. All you do is click to expand your territory chunk by chunk, and click to launch missiles to defend your chunks. When you have dozens of chunks, it gets real tiring clicking on each one over and over to restock their missiles, just so you can click each one over and over to defend them one by one. All you do is swipe around the globe finding the targeted territory and launching defense missiles. Super annoying, games get boring after 5-10 minutes of doing this. Gameplay is repetitive, little replay value. Glowing reviews, pretty graphics, and a $1.99 price tag made this seem like it was more than it was.more -
Oct 23, 2020 I really enjoy this game but the very annoying issues do not allow me to give 5 stars. First when you win sometimes the game freezes. Second if you leave a game and try to play again the continue button does not work. Please Fix Your Game!more -
Dec 18, 2020 Fantastic phone game, but to many bugs that they need to fix it will just freeze up on you without a a second of warning and continue game doesn't work if it did they fixed this game it would easily be 5 stars across the board. -
Dec 11, 2020 Continue button doesnt work despite playing for 10 mins. I cant give an honest review until its fully functional. Keep up the good work! (I have not used or installed the free version if that helps with debug.)

Oct 17, 2020 The game is fun and is easy to understand, but they are some frustrating issues. For example: exiting a game, which should save, only to find that the option to continue said save is gone, pressing "continue saved game" only for the game not to load, and winning a game, but not winning. To elaborate, when all other countries have been defeated, a game summary screen should appear, which will then count your win. Frequently, however, that screen doesn't appear and your work is for nothing.more -
Dec 15, 2020 Something is not working when I win or lose and sometimes it freezes in the middle of the game. When I lose or win it just gets stuck and nothing happens. Controls are not working either.

Jan 3, 2021 You have a bug where if I use my spen during the game, I can no longer rotate the map. I'll remove the 1 star once this is acknowledged. Tab s7+ -
Dec 24, 2020 Freezes when I get close to winning and win, save game feature does not work. Fix those issues and it becomes a 4.5 star. -
Dec 17, 2020 On my Samsung Galaxy 9 it keeps on deleting the save data it will not save any of the data and anytime I get down to one country to go until I actually destroy them all I cannot unite my countries together because of that one country but the game freezes up because some odd reason they will not let me attack the last one to win the game. I do enjoy this game a lot but wasting a whole bunch of time not to win.more
What’s Groovy
This game was great. But a great game has a great problem to! Well everybody know about that. My experience on this game was like meeting a friend after a long time. Im not trying to sad bad things but.. the option is to limited and the Ai are easy even on hard mode. Hard to befriend with the Ai since it is a computer. Nation number are too small why not included the small nation too? There are various nation that is good for example malaysia.

What’s Subpar
Lovely game but the save game function doesn't work. Sometimes it shows there is a saved game but has no way of restoring it and sometimes it just doesn't save. The gameplay itself is fun but when you have a lot of territory you basically spend the entire game making missiles. It is tedious then but i still like it. If they fix the save bug I'll give 4 stars

I love this game so much! I’ve been playing this game practically since it came out! There’s always been 2 things that have bugged me however that I thought you might take into consideration. Maybe it was your choice to not have Alaska owned by the US, or maybe you couldn’t make it happen somehow. Either way, I think that would make it harder for Russia, as they are too easy to play as. Also, I think it would really be cool if Hawaii was added as somewhere to expand to, or already be owned by the US. Whether it is accessed through New Guinea, Japan, or the west coast of America is up to you, but I think it would surely spice things up if China, North Korea or Australia could all of a sudden expand into North America through the Pacific! Maybe these suggestions didn’t help, but what I’d like you to know is that I love your game and so do a lot of my friends! Thank you for your consideration! -
I really enjoy this game but the very annoying issues do not allow me to give 5 stars. First when you win sometimes the game freezes. Second if you leave a game and try to play again the continue button does not work. Please Fix Your Game!

Good, but could be improved
I like it very much for its unique game design and easy to learn format, but: 1.It needs multiplayer. I think you could run a server every ~10 minutes where a multiplayer game is hosted of 6-12 players, one for every nation. At the beginning of the game, players create a nation in a random area of choice 2 nations large. There should be no attacking for one minute, and no time slowdown. The nation symbol is the # player they are (player 1, 2, etc.) 2.Diplomacy. Just like final hour. I don't need to say anything more. 3.Various countries should have more territory, or better tech, like USA should have Alaska and definitely should have ICBMs and war tech 1. Western Europe shouldn't include Italy, and some countries like Brazil say they have technology in the country selection menu but don't when they start in game. 4.More Countries/Alliances like NATO should be added and India&Pakistan should be separated

Ta greatest mobile nuke game!!!
This game is absolutely my favorite game on my phone. But could u maybe add some ships, submarines, and planes? Similar to DEFCON.

Fantastic game to spend 15 minutes on.. or hours.
Love this game, but wanted to let the dev know I encountered a strange bug. I was playing as North Korea trying to get the Oceania achievement and I had captured every single territory on the map except the final piece of Australia, which was held by what was left of China. So I used my infiltrators to take that spot, it froze for a second, said I unlocked Australia, then was just locked in place. I could fire missiles, use powers, and see that everyone was dead in the diplomacy menu, but I couldn’t move the globe and it wouldn’t say I won. I quit and loaded the save, then it said I unlocked Israel and I could spin the globe, but it still didn’t give me the “You Won” screen, instead I was just able to look around and fire missiles and stuff. It still gave me the rewards in the menu and said I had beaten it with N.Korea, but I just thought it was a strange bug. -
Really good game. Online play available?
This is a complex game that is easy and fun to play. I love games like these, where you learn from your mistakes in order to get better next time. I figured out a strategy early on in the game when I lost every match: create pacts first, expand, research with land locked nations, build cruisers until you obtain your super weapons. Once you obtain your super weapons, shift to a more aggressive stance and start your attack! I’m sure others have figured out their own way of success. If I were to make a suggestion, please make online gameplay available or maybe create different modes like team death match, scenarios(build as much nukes before an asteroid hits) etc. really fun concept, really fun game. -
Needs Final Hour
This game is pretty good I must say, but it is lacking in comparison to its much more advanced twin on PC. There is really no reason why you can't bring Final Hour to IOS, so why not do it? Also, maybe some nerfs and buffs need to be placed in on some of the super weapons. The Cobalt bomb, the Tsar bomb, the Laser Satellite, and the Air Defense Dome are all quite underwhelming when you compare them to the other, much better super weapons. The Stealth Bomber and the Infiltrator are a completely different story, as they are both game winners that your enemy can't do anything about. Basically it's "Tap a country, wait 5 seconds, this country is now dead/in your command, wait 5 seconds, repeat. -
I've had the game for months, and have done a lot, it'd a good game to play both short and quick or if you want to take your time, theirs a progression system just wish the solar laser did more damage

Good but needs more options
I love this game but I am frustrated on how hard it is I would love to have a mode where you can make your own options or customize to your liking such as how much territory you start with, how advanced your research is, how many nukes you start with, the option to just have fun and mess around by giving yourself super weapons at the start, tweaking build and research times, etc etc. I hope you see This and add it to the game anyway this game is great and I live it. -
I like it alot would love to see more super weapons because there are barely any cool/strong once so I have to use the same combo over and over again. Like a super op combo is the bomber and sonic boom rocket and just spam the hell out of everyone.

SUPER FUN
I’ve played this game for weeks and I’m still enjoying it. The AI is unpredictable and the outcome is never the same. So overall it’s really great and well made but I do want the developers to start updating it more. Maybe adding game modes, multiplayer and online, nuclear winter when a certain amount of bombs are dropped, more superpowers, more nations, treaties, and even natural disasters!!! Well that’s what I could think of. Thank you so much for making such a great game and PLEASE take what I suggested into consideration. -
Encountered a strange bug but i rate this 5 stars!
I love this game but i also encountered a glitch that is said by another person but it was with western Europe i killed every superpower and then there is no you win? Screen so i just went and conquered the entire world. Still no: you win? Screen. And i have a suggestion that is to expand the research tree and also

Bugged on hard core
So I set it on hard core playing as the U.S. after I shot the last nuke on the last enemy territory the game sort of froze in place. I could see everything and even attack I just couldn’t rotate the globe. So I turned it off and reopened it. It let me rotate the globe but there was no one on the map but me as the U.S. and now I don’t get to claim my victory...:( please fix this. It’s a great game I would love to see some expansions as well. Potentially the ability to actually cause damage to the earth itself? Maybe ground troops to invade nearby countries? There’s a lot of potential -
Overall the game is fun, controls good, and easy to get used too. I think it would be exciting if they added mutiplayer mode. It wold be great to destroy friends.

Very fun game but has flaws
I absolutely love playing this game when I have no internet, and it's a great way to pass time. However, there is one issue that you need to fix as it's becoming pretty annoying. Every time I do the objective that unlocks Brazil, when I come back on the game later, it didn't save that objective so I can't play as Brazil. This is getting very annoying, as I'm sick of completing that objective over and over again. Also, if you could add multiplayer, that would be great. But overall, this is a very fun game. -
I like it, but I'd rate 3 stars if I wasn't so nice coz I play hardcore mode all the time and all the nations go after me at the same time, and I think that in reality the nations wouldn't all just stop and go after South Africa or Brazil like come on guys... Also the game crashes sometimes...

Good game but needs fixes
One of my favorite games to play on my phone and the addition of final hour is cool but the hd graphics can get very blurry and sometimes it’s hard to read things and after the update it seems the sensitivity went down and is much more stiff to play maybe an option is to make a setting for it and I also think the game needs a multiplayer mode, maybe by same WiFi connection or even Bluetooth. This is still a great app and the new super weapons are fun to use. -
Great game but some flaws
This game is great but has some flaws that limit the games potential -no multiplayer, multiplayer would be amazing for this game -very long games, when I first started playing games took as long as 40 minutes, maybe I'm not that good at the game or the game is normally like this - additions like diplomacy and different super weapons like in final hour I hope you add these additions, thanks for reading -
Great game
This is a fun and great strategy game although I was trying to win on hardcore as Russia and I beat West Europe but my globe wouldn’t move then I exited and went back in and nothing happened then I tried restarting and then didn’t get the achievement this game also has a ton of other bugs like with the diplomacy menu where it disappears a bunch or certain country’s will not show up in that menu.
-
Great game. "Would you like to play a game?" 😂 However I've rated 3 stars as the continue saved game does not work. A game takes a while and requires focus, so not being able to resume a game in action is bad. If you leave the app running in background and go back to it it's fine. Also I won the game and it froze, gutted as I started as NK hard mode. I've posted the same review in the free version as I guess it's the same.

Total click fest, not RTS
Game is a little fun, however don’t expect this to be a strategy game with calculated decisions, there’s very little strategy. All you do is click to expand your territory chunk by chunk, and click to launch missiles to defend your chunks. When you have dozens of chunks, it gets real tiring clicking on each one over and over to restock their missiles, just so you can click each one over and over to defend them one by one. All you do is swipe around the globe finding the targeted territory and launching defense missiles. Super annoying, games get boring after 5-10 minutes of doing this. Gameplay is repetitive, little replay value. Glowing reviews, pretty graphics, and a $1.99 price tag made this seem like it was more than it was. -

Fantastic phone game, but to many bugs that they need to fix it will just freeze up on you without a a second of warning and continue game doesn't work if it did they fixed this game it would easily be 5 stars across the board.
-
Continue button doesnt work despite playing for 10 mins. I cant give an honest review until its fully functional. Keep up the good work! (I have not used or installed the free version if that helps with debug.)

Needs a little touch up
Ok so it’s not a bad game but they need to make more super weapons, more non super weapon nukes to build, a button that allows you to build one type of missile on every province, a first strike for just one province, they need more super weapons and to buff and nerf some, a hardcore mode for under 8 provinces, way better AI, better visibility on clustered provinces that have been nuked, also I use the tactical highlight a lot so why not make it a setting?, if you’ve made it this far click on a province and choose a location to attack and if your first strike doesn’t say lie arsenal click it -
Fix your game
This is a very fun game and it hurts me to give it 3 stars but its pretty buggy and it seems you don’t care about it. For example with North Korea i have “won” twice and destroyed all my enemies and taken over territories but the game instead of saying you won or whatnot it just freezes and lets me go around the globe stuck in limbo This has happened twice and is extremely and absolutely annoying and destroys your motivation to play if you don’t even win -
Every time the last nation is eliminated, the screen freezes but the game still continues I can launch missiles and the cool downs work,but any missile im building is paused and I can't move where I'm looking

About halfway through the game, it gets to the point that it freezes just as the last country is defeated. No more enemies to eliminate, but no win. There is a button in the menu that appears to allow you to continue a previous game, but it doesn't work. I've lost the progress of the last 3 games I played because of this. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work.

I love this game BUT it doesn't work on my tablet and all of my saved progress gone. Honestly, I'm more upset about it not working on my tablet then anything else. Was looking forward to playing this on a much bigger screen. Issues included, not being able to rotate the globe, not being able to zoom in, not being able to make alliances and so on. I am basically stuck. Very disappointing.
-
This used to be my favorite game to play to kill time, and it really keeps you thinking on how to strategize, but I hate how the game doenst save your progress anymore; so if you leave the app, and come back, you have to start all over.

Major click fest
Game can be fun but can be infuriating due to it being a click fest most of the time. Basically if you choose a more difficult nation you can expect the computer players to primarily just launch missiles at you and you'll essentially just be clicking to keep your missiles re-upped plus having to defend territories that are building new missiles. It gets annoying. Also there are some end of game bugs where it doesn't record victories or defeats. Lastly sometimes inexplicably you won't be able to defend a site, you touch a territory and its options don't come up and so you just watch the missile hit your territory. All in all not a terrible game but also kind of brain dead clicking. -
Needs a REAL set of instructions
This game could’ve been so much better, if the developers had simply invested in a real set of instructions. Apparently, they think that their controls are inherently intuitive. But they are NOT. The research option is a specially opaque. I can never tell if I have chosen a research direction, or if it’s just telling me what it’s doing - it’s very stupid. Also, why on earth do you have to do research by each country? It is needlessly complicated. Also, they never explain the controls at the bottom. What did they do? How does it work? Essentially, I am learning the game by trial and error. Or, perhaps I should say that I WAS learning the game that way – I am done now… Waste of money. -
You have a bug where if I use my spen during the game, I can no longer rotate the map. I'll remove the 1 star once this is acknowledged. Tab s7+
-
Freezes when I get close to winning and win, save game feature does not work. Fix those issues and it becomes a 4.5 star.
-
The game is fun and is easy to understand, but they are some frustrating issues. For example: exiting a game, which should save, only to find that the option to continue said save is gone, pressing "continue saved game" only for the game not to load, and winning a game, but not winning. To elaborate, when all other countries have been defeated, a game summary screen should appear, which will then count your win. Frequently, however, that screen doesn't appear and your work is for nothing.
-
On my Samsung Galaxy 9 it keeps on deleting the save data it will not save any of the data and anytime I get down to one country to go until I actually destroy them all I cannot unite my countries together because of that one country but the game freezes up because some odd reason they will not let me attack the last one to win the game. I do enjoy this game a lot but wasting a whole bunch of time not to win.
-
Something is not working when I win or lose and sometimes it freezes in the middle of the game. When I lose or win it just gets stuck and nothing happens. Controls are not working either.
