Heyho everyone! The first weekend with Partisans 1941 released to the public was a blast - even though some of us might have had less sleep than usual, it was needed that we can be there for you in the first hours and days whenever questions arose.

- Partisans 1941 is out now, bringing real-time Commandos tactics to the Eastern Front - 14 October 2020
Over the past two years or so, World War II games have cast their gaze more frequently onto the Eastern Front, focusing in on the German invasion of Russia and the counteroffensive that eventually saw the Red Army press the German Army all the way back to Berlin. Partisans 1941, out today, is a tactics game set in the invasion that puts you in charge of a plucky band of Russian patriots using guerrilla tactics against a larger and more well-equipped occupying force. If you remember the Commandos games , or the more recent Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun , you'll have a pretty good idea of what Partisans 1941 is all about. It's a real-time game, and you'll want to carefully use stealth, traps, and well-timed ambush tactics to gain the advantage on the occupying Nazi forces. Along the way you'll recruit new resistance fighters and develop your team's skills, resting up and leveling a…

- Partisans 1941 Review - 14 October 2020
So, you may not have heard, but way back when in '41, some not so great guys called 'Nazis' invaded the USSR. This made the local people pretty irritated, and some of them started bushwhacking the Germans during their occupation. It's some thrilling and poetic stuff, and it's surprising that there haven't been any games based on it (that I know of) until Partisans 1941 came around. Reminiscent of the pretty good Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, Partisans is notably more action focused. Where in Shadow Tactics, a wrong step would get your guys killed pretty quickly, in Partisans you can actually have gun fights against the Nazis and not get instantly owned. So how does a real-time stealth-action game translate to the Eastern Front? LIKE DEFIANCE (2008) BUT LESS DEPRESSING The story follows one Commander Zorin, a Red Army officer, who is captured by the invading German forces, but ma…
- Partisans 1941 review - 14 October 2020
Partisans 1941 review Partisans 1941 is the Commandos formula put through a WW2 Soviet filter, and it’s a great piece of work. It’s less flashy than the similar Desperados 3, but makes up for it with a nifty base management metagame, and an immersive, Russian-written setting. * Developer: Alter Games; * Publisher: Daedalic Entertainment ;* Release: 14 October 2020 ;* On: Windows ;* From: Steam ;* Price: £TBC/€TBC/$TBC; Valya, my sniper and occasional medic, kicks things off. Having chloroformed a sentry, she’s now sat snug in his position, with a great view of the SS officer commanding the checkpoint. Crack – her rifle (it’s our only decent one) fires, and his head bursts. On the other side of the position, Captain Zorin leaps from a bush preceded by a hurled knife, under the arc of an improvised grenade lobbed by his old mate Fetisov. The knife thuds into a fore…

- Questions and Answers - 17 July 2020
Heyho everyone, What an amazing wave of interest - We are glad that presenting Partisans 1941's Demo was a great success for all parties involved - you got some great game time and we got some great feedback! We are at the moment in our final period before releasing the game, which is why our development team at Alter Games and our publishing team here at Daedalic Entertainment are putting all of their effort into finalizing the release. This obviously doesn't mean, that we are not reading every post or message you are sending our way - only answering them one-by-one individually becomes a bit more difficult during this time of production. To counter this, we selected some of the most frequent asked questions from the steam forums and tried to answer as good as we can at this point in time: When is it going to be released? As written on our store page of Partisans 1941 we have aimed to…
- The Flare Path: Fletchers and Forklifts - 26 June 2020
Thinking about making a U-boat game? Unless you’ve some quirky new angle or have a mind to model WWI U-boats my advice would be don’t . The genre is as ra mm ed as a freshly sealed sardine can at the moment. First-time devs Iron Wolf have the right idea. Instead of following their well-reviewed co-op board game about Kriegsmarine convoy molesters with a PC take on the same subject, the Polish outfit is aiming to spellbind simmers with a game played from a convoy chaperone’s perspective.
