Teitoku no Ketsudan II (released in the West as P.T.O. II: Pacific Theater of Operations) is a deeply detailed World War II naval strategy game released for the Super Famicom (SNES) in 1995 by Koei. Players take command of either the Allied or Japanese naval forces, managing entire fleets, allocating resources, and directing strategic campaigns across the Pacific.
How to Play
Your objective is to win the war by securing key territories and destroying the enemy fleet. The game is divided into strategic planning phases and tactical combat. Navigate the complex menus and strategic maps using the D-pad (arrow keys). Use the A button (Z on your keyboard) to confirm orders and select units, and the B button (X) to cancel actions. Start (Enter) opens main menus, while Select (Shift) often cycles through vital data screens.
Tips
- Pay close attention to the monthly conferences; this is where you secure your budget and establish your main objectives for the coming weeks.
- Do not neglect your supply lines. Combat fleets are useless without the fuel and ammunition required to sustain operations.
- Protect your carriers at all costs, as air superiority is often the deciding factor in major naval engagements.
