To End All Wars: Breaking the Deadlock is a top-down historical strategy game. As the advancing Central Powers bogged down in Europe and troops dug into their trenches, a stalemate developed and hopes of a quick victory were dashed on both sides. However, with all quiet on the Western Front, both the Central Powers and the Entente continued to look elsewhere for opportunities to gain advantage. Seek new allies in the Balkans, launch campaigns in the Middle East, and strive for breakthroughs on a variety of fronts. All this was done with one goal: to break the deadlock.
