Description
The kamikaze attacks -- deliberate mass suicides that turned aircraft into devastatingly effective guided missiles -- were a unique phenomenon of World War II. In the closing months of the Pacific conflict, the desperate but indomitable Japanese command formulated a last-ditch equation: one plane could equal one ship. "Kamikaze" is a two-player wargame simulating a kamikaze raid on two to six U.S. ships.
