688 Attack Sub, 1989, Big Box, New & Sealed For Sale

688 Attack Sub helped define the modern nuclear-submarine simulation niche of the late 1980s, combining an accessible icon-driven interface with contemporary sonar, torpedo, navigation, and command systems. Its modem and null-modem multiplayer support was particularly forward-looking for its era, and Computer Gaming World nominated the game for its 1989 Simulation Game of the Year. Its design also provided the foundation for John W. Ratcliff\'s later SSN-21 Seawolf (1994), which expanded the same style of modern submarine warfare.

Collectors interested in 688 Attack Sub may also want to explore Red Storm Rising (1988), another Cold War nuclear-submarine simulation centered on U.S.-Soviet naval warfare; Silent Service (1985) and Silent Service II (1990), influential MicroProse submarine simulations that helped establish the genre; SSN-21 Seawolf (1994), the direct sequel from John W. Ratcliff and Electronic Arts; Aces of the Deep (1994), a later benchmark in detailed submarine simulation; and Jane\'s 688(I) Hunter/Killer (1997), an Electronic Arts-published successor that returned to the 688-class subject with a substantially more detailed modern systems model.
