Battle of the Somme, 1916

We were in the heart of the Great War. After the shots in Sarajevo, Europe was set ablaze, and millions of soldiers were drawn to the front. Under the banners of empires and alliances, we endured endless artillery fire and machine‑gun bursts from the trenches. In 1916, along the Somme River, the battle revealed the true horror of war. On the first day alone, tens of thousands fell, and the ground was covered in blood and mud. This game captures the experience of fighting as one soldier in that battlefield. You will hold the line with your comrades in the trenches and advance under fire. The Somme was not just a battle—it was the face of the Great War itself.
