A WWII submarine simulation released by Microprose in 1990 for IBM Compatibles and ported to the Amiga in 1991. This video features unboxing and overview, as well as gameplay of one mission on my Amiga 500 connected to a Commodore 1084 CRT monitor.
Silent Service II is sequel to Sid Meier's 1985 8bit best seller, which was very popular on the Commodore 64 though also released for the Amiga a couple of years later.
It sports various improvements over its predecessor, most notably the better graphics and sound. It is visually better on the VGA, though by a tight margin, but the game sounds better on the Amiga.
As a simulator it is good for the time of release. It won't bother you with sonar or TMA, as it's all done by your crew. So, it's very playable and enjoyable for everybody.
Summing up, a very nice sequel to a legendary game.
