Unterseeboot: U-Boat Solitaire
A downloadable game for Windows
"Unterseeboot: U-Boat Solitaire" is a solitaire wargame of German WWII submarine warfare. As U-Boat commander your mission is to sink as much Allied shipping as possible within a fast 20-turn time frame without yourself getting sunk. You have a limited supply of torpedoes and battery life, and an operational area of four depth level within which to maneuver and evade aerial attack and depth charges. Each patrol lasts no more than 10 minutes in this fun-filled yet intensive drama that unfolds above and below the dark seas of the North Atlantic.
This video game is based on the board game created by Designer Etienne Michot, and was created with the permission of the game designer. It is a not for profit project - no payments or donations can be made.

This version fixes a bug in which text was superimposed on the "phase text" (e.g, "Torpedo Phase") displayed on the top of each game screen.
Version 1.14 uploaded 15th Sept 2022. The main changes are:
1. The game play “tip” text appearing at the bottom of the image screens at the start of each phase has been bold-formatted, to enhance it’s legibility.
2. White text on pop-up notifications should now display correctly.
At last!
3 Two of the background pictures at the start of each phase (Aeroplane phase and Target Identification phase screens) have been replaced with new pictures, with a much-reduced colour saturation. The images in those screens are now much clearer and sharper.
4. The ‘game board’ text and graphics has been overhauled, and is now much clearer / sharper.
