About This Demo

Take command of the 100th Bomb Group for the first eight weeks of its war. The demo is the full game with the calendar cut short: every system is open, from the briefing table to the bomb dump to the letters on your desk. When the eighth week ends, the demo ends, and your wishlist gets you the rest of the war.

What is in the demo

- The 100th Bomb Group at Thorpe Abbotts, autumn 1943. The other three groups are in the full game.

- Eight weeks of operations: read the field order, pick the target, assign the crews and the ordnance, and fly the raid one decision at a time.

- The mission film. Watch the formation cross the coast, the fighters come in on the seats they aim for, the flak walk across the box, and the ships that fall.

- Named crews who fatigue, grieve, break, and rotate. Every ship you lose takes ten men with it, and every one of them puts a letter on your desk.

- The station: mess, ordnance, maintenance, facilities, recruiting, escort planning, and the Wing's confidence in you. Lose that and you lose your command.

- Iron Man, if you want it. One record, no second chances.

What is not

- The other three groups, the rest of the calendar, and the max-effort raids that come later in the war.

Group Commander is player-paced. There are no timers. Nothing happens until you decide it should.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The developer used generative AI as a tool during development. Store page and marketing copy was drafted with an AI writing assistant and edited by the developer. All artwork, logos, and screenshots are human-created or captured from real gameplay. The game does not use generative AI to create any content live during play; all in-game text, events, and outcomes come from the developer's own hand-authored, deterministic systems. All AI-assisted content is reviewed by the developer before release.
