📖 About This Game
Lone Wolf is a solo Print-And-Play (PNP) game that puts you in the role of a German U-boat commander operating in the Atlantic during World War II. As captain, your mission is to patrol dangerous waters, locate and sink Allied shipping, avoid detection, and survive long enough to return to base.
Each game plays out over a series of turns in which you'll roll dice to perform key actions such as movement, torpedo attacks, evasive maneuvers, system repairs, and spotting enemy convoys. You'll mark your progress and ship status on a custom sheet that track your fuel, torpedoes, hull integrity, and crew readiness. Strategic choices and the unpredictability of dice rolls create a challenging mix of resource management, risk assessment, and tactical navigation.
The modular patrol map system, random events, and mission objectives ensure no two games play the same. From engaging convoys to escaping depth charge barrages, Lone Wolf delivers an immersive and suspenseful experience in under an hour.
Will you return to port a decorated hunter of the seas or join the countless wrecks claimed by the cold Atlantic?
