Gameplay

Computer Ambush is a game in which the player controls 10 soldiers in man-to-man combat in World War II.[1]

Reception

David Long reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, stating that: "Computer Ambush (Second Edition) has been well worth the wait! It's fast, smooth flowing, and surprisingly realistic. This game could set the standard for tactical simulations for a long time to come. At least, until the Third Edition comes out."[1]
