Land of War is a first-person shooter located in 1939 Poland during German “Blitzkrieg” invasion. The main character, private Piotr Kowalski, while being relocated to Mokra, gets accidentally involved in a series of intelligence encounters between Polish and German spies. His decisions will impact fates of many, possibly saving the world as we know it. His path will lead through many historical locations and battles of the 1939 campaign.

In the battle of Mokra, the player will fight against German panzer divisions using “Ur” anti-panzer gun as well as operating an armoured train. He will embark on a crazy raid in a TKS tankette to break through German blockade near Modlin, defend Hel peninsula and help separate it from mainland with explosives! All that in epic semi-open, beautifully modelled landscapes picturing forests, villages and towns of 1939 Poland.

Throughout the game the player will be able to find and use a lot of little-known arms and equipment used by both Polish and German troops during these early stages of WWII. He will use it in a variety of challenging episodes: battles, skirmishes, reconnaissance and sabotage missions. The main character will take on the role of an infantier, reconnaissance scout, artillery man as well as tank and train driver.

A set of carefully prepared missions will force the player to take decisions on how to cope with particular problems. Apart from the obvious continuous fire, some missions will require sniper skills, others may be best experienced with just a knife and some with patience. Most of them, however, will throw the payer straight into the middle of a fierce battle, where lightning fast reactions and tactical skills will be the only way to survive.

The fate of the hero is intertwined in between real historical events which lead us through the battle of Poland on September 1939…

The real Land of War.

Muller is a fictional character of a German officer. An inspiration for him came - among others - from Wernher von Braun, German scientist, a pioneer of rocket technology and co-author of V2 flying bomb, who later became American aerospace engineer. A lot of influence on Muller also came from a book by “German secret weapons of the Second World War” Rudolf Lusar.

Muller is an embodiment of a frantic pursuit of world domination, disregarding costs of it to mankind. He plays a crucial role in the Land of War story. He is the arch enemy, the oppressor who madly and relentlessly fights to protect his greatest work, mysteries of which the player will slowly be uncovering during the game. Will he succeed?

That is up to Piotr Kowalski, the main character, who gets entangled in an espionage affair, leading to a discovery of the biggest, most advanced technological project of the 3rd Reich - a weapon so potent, it may easily destroy the world as we know it.

“It is thanks to Muller and his bodyguards, that the player will be able to obtain conceptual weapons and vehicles, which were either very rare or never made it to the real front.” - says Sebastian Binik of MS Games.

Muller is a mixture of many fabular toposes (game villains) known from classic WWII games and literature. His mysterious appearance and expressive character gives extra depth to this key figure and main antagonist and really defines the gameplay.

“When paying Land of War one must pay attention to the way the story unveils, as it may turn out there is much more than just the wartime story that Muller and Kowalski have in common.” - Sebastian Binik.
