About the Game

Rewrite the war with hindsight

You already know how history ended. The question is what you can do with that knowledge before the next month arrives.

Cascade: Hindcast is an alternate-history grand strategy game about monthly political, economic, diplomatic, and military decisions under pressure. A doctrine choice, cabinet reshuffle, production priority, or diplomatic gamble can strengthen one front while weakening another. The result is not just a report. The map moves.

A living operational map

Front lines shift across Europe as armies advance, stall, and collapse. Troop counts change in real time, territories change hands, and the strategic situation becomes visible without digging through spreadsheets.

Decisions with delayed consequences

Some decisions pay off immediately. Others return months later as shortages, breakthroughs, political crises, or new opportunities. You are not choosing isolated cards. You are building a chain of consequences.
