The Co-Op Experience

One submarine is manned by five players, four subs can play on the same server (20 players).

Description

Wolfpack is a U-boat co-op game, where a crew of players man the stations of a German type VII U-boat fighting in the Second World War.

Wolfpack is designed to compel the players to run the U-boat like a real machine. Each player controls a crew member with different duties and responsibilities. For example, to dive, the top hatch must be closed by the captain, the diesel engine must be turned off by the helmsman, the ballast vents must be opened by the crew, and the dive planes must be rotated by the dive officer.

There are similar systems for aiming torpedoes with the Torpedo Data Computer, for using the hydrophones and Enigma machine, and managing navigation and charting the enemy ships. We want the game to give the players plenty to do and put them in pressure situations where fast, smart decisions have to be made to survive.
