• Unique Features

  Several features of Aces of the Deep have given the game a much longer shelf-life than most mid-1990s games. First, a unique single-player "Career Mode" allows the user to choose which year of the war (1939-1945) he or she wants to the game to begin, tailoring the ships and weaponry to suit the period. Second, Aces of the Deep contains a higher degree of detail and historical accuracy than many war games, in both the design of the weapons and the chronological sequence in which they appear. Lastly, a 1995 edition called Aces of the Deep contains voice-recognition features for controlling the submarine.
