Blitzkrieg! is the ideal wargame for non-wargamers! Two players face off across the most iconic theaters of World War II, striving to win key campaigns and build their military strength. The game offers a challenging experience with simple rules, a short playing time, and plenty of tough decisions. Players must close campaigns, earn war victory points, gather additional resources and special weapons, and exploit strategic advantages as they play.

The Nippon Expansion adds an intriguing twist to Blitzkrieg!: What if the Axis powers had won World War II, leading to a German invasion and occupation of the United States? And what if Japan then betrayed its former ally, launching an invasion of German-occupied America—with the help of Godzilla?

Blitzkrieg! was nominated for Best 2-Player Board Game at the 2019 Golden Geek Awards. It earned the Dice Tower’s Seal of Excellence and was named the best 2-player game of the year by Tom Vasel.
