Invasion of Japan

Allied WWII Invasion of Japan 1945 is a turn based strategy game set on the Pacific theater during the Second World War. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011

This scenario covers Operation Olympic (landing on Kyushu), which was the first part of Operation Downfall (Invasion of Japan), the second part, Operation Coronet, was supposed to take place in 1946.

In this campaign you are in command of the US amphibious force tasked with seizing Kyushu - the southernmost of the Japanese home islands - to set the stage for the second stage of the Operation Downfall. The geography of Japan has forced the Allies to choose a predictable strategy, and the Japanese have set up their fanatical forces very well to take on the American onslaught. To defend Kyushu Japan is planning to throw in most of their troops, as well as huge number of civilian fighting units and what's left of their naval might. The fact that Japan is starting to run low on supplies is counterbalanced by the extreme supply distances Allies has to deal with, not forgetting kamikaze planes and midget submarines.

Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only strategy board games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still updated. The campaigns are built on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are very familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games. I would like to thank the fans for all the well thought-out advice over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of. If you have advice on how to better this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the store's comment system. In addition, because I have gigantic number of software projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a new question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you. Thanks for understanding!
