Is Dieselpunk Wars worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Vehicle-building fans who want combat shaped by physics and damage systems
- Single-player players who want missions, progression, and varied biomes
- Sandbox builders who want to create land, air, and underwater war machines
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who want immediate combat without spending time balancing vehicle construction and physics
- Players seeking a tightly focused action game rather than campaign, battle, creative, and sandbox modes
- Players who do not want to manage armor angles, buoyancy, lift, drag, fires, flooding, and core-block placement
- Players looking for a game centered on direct infantry combat rather than constructed vehicles
Our take on Dieselpunk Wars
The bounce point arrives during vehicle design: players must account for core-block structure, center of mass, buoyancy, lift, drag, armor angles, engine strain, and component damage before combat can be judged on its own terms.
What is Dieselpunk Wars?
Build combat vehicles from more than 300 elements, including weapons, armor, engines, wheels, and propulsion systems.
Vehicle shape, materials, weight, buoyancy, lift, air drag, and water drag affect handling and movement. Combat uses simulated projectiles with ballistics, penetration, and ricochet, while damage can cause fires, flooding, loss of lift, or destruction of the single core block. The game includes a single-player campaign with missions, biomes, progression, skills, active powers, and new parts earned through missions. Battle mode supports custom vehicle battles, while creative and sandbox modes support open-ended construction. Vehicles can operate on land, in the air, or underwater, with weapons such as artillery, missiles, machine guns, flamethrowers, torpedoes, bombs, and harpoons.
How Dieselpunk Wars plays
- 01300-plus building elements
- Construction uses weapons, armor, engines, wheels, propulsion systems, and other components.
- 02Simulated vehicle damage
- Individual elements have properties such as hit points, fire resistance, impact resistance, and explosion resistance.
- 03Ballistic combat
- Projectiles use ballistics, penetration, and ricochet mechanics, while angled armor can deflect incoming fire.
- 04Land air sea vehicles
- Build machines that travel on the ground, fly, or dive underwater.
- 05Campaign progression
- Missions across different biomes provide new parts, skills, and active powers.
- 06Custom battle mode
- Create battles between vehicles built in the game.
- 07Steam Workshop support
- Share vehicle creations through the integrated Steam Workshop.
