About Civil War: 1861
Civil War: 1861 covers the opening battles of the American Civil War. The game covers both the small and large actions of that momentous year, starting with the battle at ‘Big Bethel’, on to the comparatively vast engagements at ‘Bull Run’ and ‘Wilson’s Creek’.
In 1861 both sides have plenty of volunteer recruits who, though enthusiastic, lack battlefield experience. On the weaponry side much of the equipment still belongs to the Napoleonic Era with a plethora of muzzle loading, smoothbore artillery.
Many of the commanders, who most would identify as the leaders the civil war armies, are still junior officers in the engagements recreated in this game. Command the Union or Confederate forces in these key battles.
Can you change history? Good luck and on to battle!

Not my type of game. Tried to give it a fair go but it's boring as hell. Plus I'm not an American.6 found this helpful
Very mediocre wargame. Don't bother.3 found this helpful
Really fun and enjoyable. It’s simple, smooth, and entertaining, with great gameplay and good vibes all around. Addictive and satisfying, I keep coming back for more. Overall, a solid game that’s fun, relaxing, and has just the right amount of challenge.2 found this helpful
Very crusty 1v1 strategy game with no multiplayer. It’s shovelware. It feels like something that came out in 2007 rather than 2017. If it’s hexagonal, does that mean it’s based off of the board game from the 1980s? I genuinely have no idea. I can’t think of much to say about it. It’s mechanically functional; if you look at the screenshots, what you see is what you get. I can think of ways this could have been broken or torturous, but something’s wrong when I have no motivation to finish twelve ten-minute scenarios. This isn’t a war game, this is one-fifth of a war game. Who’d shell out $50 to have all five years? Even getting them half-off would be a swindle. I bought these and nine other tactical computer board games in a bundle that cost a single dollar, and I can see why the developer needed to go to such desperate lengths to juice the install base. I think the element in this game most indicative of its quality is the infobox used to preview combat actions. The Times New Roman font looks garish sized up, and the infobox repeatedly cuts out of the screen, requiring you to drag the screen to see the whole readout. I think I’m making this game sound a lot worse than …1 found this helpful
Good game, lots of diverse sceanrios.
Enjoyable, Nostalgic hextile game.
