Press reviews: “An eye for detail and an obsession with authenticity, if not complete accuracy, is possibly even more important in Tannenberg than it was in Verdun.” Fraser Brown (Rock Paper Shotgun) “The indie development team have painstakingly recreated the conflict of WWI’s eastern front. The detail paid towards combatants, weapon animations, and sound effects create an immersive experience.” 8.5 – Laura Thurston (GameWatcher) “The thing that really impresses me about Tannenberg and the work that's been done by the development team is their attention to detail' ... 'I think it's a credit to the team that they've made something that is actually really really engaging” Westie
