D-Day is a video game by Games Workshop.

Description

D-Day is a war game simulation based on the World War II Normandy landings.[1]

Reception

Roger Kean previewed D-Day in Crash #9 (October 1984), calling it "ideal for play-by-mail" and "a classic strategy war game which requires a deal of skill and judgement against another human opponent".[1]

Andrew Miller reviewed D-Day for White Dwarf #60, giving it an overall rating of 9 out of 10, and stated that "The mechanics of the game are so simple anyone can play it, but in terms of strategy, D-Day is second to none."[2]

Home Computing Weekly commented: "Certainly not for the arcade freak. A specialist may appreciate it".[3]
