Great game when it runs. If you are using a Windows 11 machine, go into display settings and set display scale to 100% from the default value of 125%, otherwise the program will not run.

I have enjoyed this game for years. Like many WWII sub enthusiasts I would like to see an updated game. Personally I enjoy the tactics, not the personnel management. If there is ever an update would like to see resupply at sea added and the ability to play Japanese subs.

This game works fine for me on Windows 11 after you set the Compatibility settings. Run as XP SP2, and disable fullscreen optimizations. I can't see the intro video when I start the game, but if you hit enter or click it will skip it. It's also a nice sub game for it's time and it's fun today.

SH4 is one of the best sub sims ever, try it with mods like OM and FotRSU. BUT DON'T BUY THIS VERSION! Buy SH4 with the U-Boat missions, is a newer version and they are needed for the big mods to work.

Been playing this shortly after it came out. It's a great game, but still bug filled. The DLC for it is worse though. For those complaining that it's not working on Windows 11, use compatibility mode. I'm using 11 and have no issues at all with it. Same with Hunter 5.
