<p>Recreating the nuclear standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/lrdgames-inc/">Little Red Dog Games</a>' third title challenges us to roll the dice on global diplomacy. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/precipice/">Precipice</a> spans the forty years of hostilities between the two nations and in it, players get to choose which side they want to play as, each represented by their respective national animal in an (adorable) clean suit. Based off of the continually high tensions of the Cold War, the main gameplay lies in deciding when and where to push the buttons of your opponent with agents and invasions, and when to back off. Failing at this important task will mean the start of the nuclear meltdown, the end of the world, and the game along with it.

<p>Precipice will offer both singleplayer and 2-player online matchmaking. In singleplayer, players will test their strategic skills against an advanced AI that "observes player behavior and makes assumptions and judgements about their rival’s personality and character, their intended strategy, and develops a plan of its own to counter."

<p>Ushered in by what might be the most idiosyncratic trailer for a strategy game yet, it does get the gist across, with bear and bald eagle squaring off to strong rap music before one them reaches for the big red button. You can see it for yourself below:
