About Twilight Struggle: Red Sea
"Now the trumpet summons us again" —John Fitzgerald Kennedy, First Inaugural 1961.
Twilight Struggle: Red Sea builds on the award-winning game Twilight Struggle. The year is 1974. As the Soviet Union and the United States are locked in a life-or-death struggle across the globe, the Horn of Africa suddenly takes center stage. Leadership changes spark a chain of events that upset the regional balance of power and unleash all the familiar elements of the Cold War.
Lead the global policy in this 2-player, card driven strategy game and take the role as either the United States or the Soviet Union. Engage in varying actions that are vital to regional stability such as spreading political influence, conducting military coups, or attempting favorable political realignments. It is your goal to gain allies and be the leading worldwide superpower. But be careful not to overreach, as one wrong decision can lead to DEFCON One and a game ending nuclear war!
Real World Events
Card mechanics based on the historical events of the Cold War, centered around East Africa, the Arabian Gulf, and the vital sea lanes stretching between them. New Flashpoint countries create additional tension around Coup attempts and have DEFCON impacts.

Great sequel
If you like Twilight Struggle, you will love this, it’s like a micro version playable in 2 to 3 turns and very intense focusing on the Red Sea region split between the Middle East and Africa. Fun game! If you’ve played Twilight Struggle, it’s pretty similar, and there’s a one page summary of differences you can find online. Make sure to learn the victory conditions. Very good competitive game playing with other players online. The people who are writing that the AI cheats must just be very bad at this game. Haven’t had any significant bugs either.

Love this adaptation, hoping the original TS comes to iPhone soon
It's a feature-complete port. The game sparked my interest in the history and region. It's also a great way to get familiar with the board game before playing the physical version. One small issue though: On my iPhone, the Dynamic Island covers the cards on the side, making them hard to operate. It would be great if you could add some spacing on the left and right sides to fix this. By the way, do you have any plans to bring the original Twilight Struggle to iPhone?:) It seems like it's only available on iPad for now.
