Carrier Deck for Windows

Control a flight deck in Carrier Deck

Carrier Deck is a military-themed time-management game in which you play an officer on board the USS Ronald Reagan. Your job is not only to launch sorties by your ship's planes but manage the delivery of needed supplies, make sure returning aircraft have somewhere to land and respond to threats as they approach.

Fast-paced combat management

To manage your aircraft carrier, Carrier Deck offers a few important tools. The central one is a track showing threats -- and your own vehicles -- moving along four tracks. These tracks represent air, land, surface and sub-surface environments. You can extend the range at which threats on these tracks are visible by launching reconnaissance missions. Once you've identified the tasks you need to do, you'll visit the carrier's various decks to assign the crew and aircraft needed to carry them out. The game's graphics are clear and realistic, although the camera can be challenging and the on-screen controls can sometimes be a little tricky to use precisely. The constant flow of new threats and information means that this pauseless game never lets up; even simple tasks can be dangerous when you're planning and executing them quickly. Each mission is short, but the progression system effectively combines them into a longer campaign.

Command the seas

If you like time-management or military simulation games and don't mind a real challenge, Carrier Deck is definitely worth checking out.
