## About Vietnam War

Vietnam War is an early-access open-world first-person action game developed by Thorium Game Lab, released in 2025 at $14.99. Set during the Vietnam conflict, it features procedural missions where players command squads across jungles, hills, and villages as either the U.S. or Vietcong forces. Factual mechanics include a rotation system simulating tour-of-duty cycles, resource management with rations, squad commands, friendly fire, and terrain destruction. Players can build command posts and dig defensive positions across a massive map spanning 50+ vehicles for transport. Reviewers describe the experience as atmospheric and immersive, noting that ricochet physics create unpredictability and that generative AI handles squad dialogue. The game runs on Steam Deck in a playable state and holds an 85% positive rating from 1,317 Steam reviews.
