Simple World War 2 destroyer simulator that offers enough options to keep the players happy for long time plus wide range of missions and enemies. For 1990 this game was a big deal with 3D graphics and a chance to operate many parts of the ship.
Advanced Destroyer Simulator (also known as ADS) is a tactical naval simulation game released for the Commodore Amiga in 1990 by Futura Games. Developed by Keypunch Software, the game places players in command of a World War II Tribal-class destroyer, tasking them with navigating hazardous waters, engaging enemy fleets, and executing strategic naval operations.
The game stands out for its deep control systems, allowing players to manage multiple stations on the ship:
- The Bridge: For navigating courses and managing the ship`s overall speed and steering.
- The Gun Turrets: For manual or automated aiming and firing at enemy surface vessels.
- Torpedo Stations: For launching deadly underwater attacks against heavily armored targets.
- Anti-Aircraft Guns: For tracking and shooting down incoming enemy bomber and fighter planes.
- Sonar and Radar Room: For detecting hidden threats, particularly enemy submarines (U-boats).
Advanced Destroyer Simulator was highly praised on the Amiga for its realistic balance between real-time action and complex naval strategy. Featuring 3D vector graphics for surface combat and detailed tactical maps for long-range planning, it delivered an immersive command experience that became a favorite among military sim enthusiasts on the platform.
