About
You are not the hero. You are in charge.
In Acceptable Losses, you are the officer behind the line. You make the calls. You assign the missions. You sign the forms while your men bleed for inches of mud.
Each day brings new orders. Send squads on patrols, trench repairs, wiring parties, or assaults.
At night, face the paperwork. Read incident reports. Review medical updates. Scan intelligence briefings. Hope reinforcements arrive on time.
Balance your duty to HQ with the lives of the men under your command. Survive twenty days. That is all they ask. Perform well and gain influence to tilt conditions to your favor. Perform poorly and they take them back.
Deliver acceptable results and you may be ordered Over the Top. Survive the assault and you will be tasked with holding the captured trenches until replacements arrive. Fail, and you will be held responsible.
Over 60 missions ranging from routine trench duty to full assaults
Every Mission has at least 6 Outcomes
Over 120 mid mission events that shift outcomes in real time
Over 30 night events affecting squads, supplies, and trench conditions
Over 15 modifiers including morale, fatigue, weather, and enemy readiness
Randomly generated soldiers with unique names and birthplaces
Permanent death within your squads
Join missions personally for a leadership boost, but risk injury
HQ evaluations that determine your standing and whether you earn the chance to go Over the Top

An absolute blast to play, great visuals and amusing gameplay, it'll be even better if/when an endless mode comes out.
A really well done solitaire style board game with a World War 1 theme. The pricepoint matches the amount of content. There is room to improve on the visuals and the emotional immersion, but overall I left feeling really satisfied after a playthrough or two. Recommend.

This is a great game for if you like some workforce management and are tolerant of randomness. I have found it to be repeatable because I want to see how the narrative goes. If I pick the same decision during an incident, sometimes it can be the wrong call even if it was the right call the previous time. I am curious to see if it's developed more but it works well and was a great way to spent a few harrowing hours.
I love this game. It's brutally unforgiving management, but that's WWI for you. Your decisions will have consequences. 10/10
Good game. Wish there was more of it.
really nice game, makes you think what you want to sacrifice.
Highly recommend if you don't mind rng and reading
It's a nice game. It lacks a bit of content variety and has some balancing issues (like fatigue snowballing into a deathtrap) but it's a great concept that I haven't really found anywhere else. The RNG can sometimes be frustrating, but I'd argue that sometimes, it's better like that. If every decision had no random chance of going horribly wrong, even in the best conditions, it would make the game much more predictable and in my opinion, less interesting. For 8€ it's a nice purchase but I do hope for more content in the future
A great little game. Play it if you want to think about what your choices really mean to the men in your command. One of the few titles I have bought on day one release after playing the demo. Nice work. Very enjoyable. Simply a game that proves you don't have to complicate things to make a game very very good indeed. Well done.
