"Mini WWII" is a fast card-driven wargame for 2-4 players within 2 hours. Players lead the forces of four main powers to fight each other in the land and sea during the Second World War. Cube represents the army and disc represents the navy. Players play one to two action cards in order to attack enemy force, replace friendly force, develop a technology, or execute an event. There are six turns in one game from 1939 - 1945. Players are divided into two groups: Germany and Japan for Axis & United Kingdom and Soviet Union for Allies. The group with more victory points wins the game.
