Berlin '85 is a 1980 board game published by Simulations Publications, Inc.

Gameplay

Berlin '85 is a near-future game in which the allied forces in Berlin, consisting of French, British, US, and West Berlin Police, are besieged by Russian/Warsaw Pact units in a battle of time and attrition.[1]

Reception

Kristan J. Wheaton reviewed Berlin '85 in The Space Gamer No. 30.[1] Wheaton commented that "All in all, Berlin '85 is a game with many problems, but ultimately worth purchasing. An experienced player will recognize the faults in the game mechanics and change them to make a more balanced, exciting game. This is not a game for beginners, as they will not be able to adjust to the grossly unbalanced system. It is obvious that in Berlin '85, it is the subject and not the game that is 'the thing.'"[1]
