1942 USS Yorktown

Players act as American carrier pilots launching from an aircraft carrier in the Pacific to locate and sink an opposing carrier while defending against its attacking aircraft. The game is cooperative for 1–4 players and runs against a strict timer, forcing rapid decisions and improvisation rather than long-term planning. Players manage sorties, resolve aerial combat, and gather intelligence to pinpoint the enemy’s position before time runs out.
