Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter

Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter is a naval simulator featuring a Fletcher-class destroyer, in which your mission is to hunt down enemy submarines and protect Allied vessels. The game largely revolves around monitoring instruments, planning, and strategy, so it’s neither an easy nor an intuitive title. The developers’ pursuit of maximum realism is also one of the game’s weaknesses, but it will appeal to niche players who love planning, simulators, and naval themes.

Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter is excessively detailed and specific to the point that it feels less like a pasttime or a piece of entertainment, and more like something which should only be recommended or played by people who actually want to join the Navy.

While we are trying to hunt ships in Silent Hunter, we are hunting submarines in this game. Technically, they offer a similar experience. If you liked that series, you might want to give Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter a try.
