style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">David Heath, CEO of Matrix Games said ?2by3 Games
represents the old school game design and development and once more proves it
here. The new features and enhancements provides players with many new levels
of game play and strategies.?
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">This new sequel, style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Gary Grigsby?s World At War: A World
Divided, adds a host of new features to grow the engine well beyond
the original game in terms of grand strategy. style="FONT-STYLE: italic">A World Divided includes spies, neutral
country diplomacy, variable political events, unit experience and scenarios that
occur after the war as well as starting earlier than the original.
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The original game was recently awarded the 2006 Origins
Vanguard Unique Game of the Year Award, following an IGN Game of the Year and
Editors? Choice Award. The focus of the series places players at the helm of one
of the five major nations during the Second World War. Managing supply lines,
production, troop movement, and resources, it has a simple and elegant design
with variable levels of difficulty and detail.
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-STYLE: italic">Gary Grigsby?s World at War: A World
Divided takes this design to the next level, adding espionage,
code-breaking, variable political events, unit experience and neutral country
diplomacy. These changes vastly affect the dynamics of play and add entire new
layers to the grand strategy mix of the original. Players will have to learn to
be more flexible with their tactics, facing more important decisions on these
new fronts.
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">In addition to the new features in style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Gary Grigsby?s World At War: A World Divided
is a completely new ?what-if? scenario that carries forward from the
end of the war into a conflict between the Western Allies and the
Soviet Union. Russia?s massive and experienced army is up against
the West?s well equipped forces and industrial might. In addition to simply
starting with this scenario, players have the option to jump right from the end
of their normal campaign game of WWII into this alternate history. This creates
a whole new set of strategic choices as players will have to think into the
future and plan for their war against the other super-power while still fending
off the Axis forces.
style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The overall ease of play is retained in style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Gary Grigsby?s World at War: A World
Divided. The game ships with four tutorials, three campaigns, and
five different scenarios starting from 1939 and the invasion of
Poland and extending into the mid 1940s.
