DEFCON: Thermonuclear War Simulator

In homage to the movie WarGames, DEFCON encourages the player to replay cold war doomsday scenarios, sitting in a bunker commanding forces to destroy the enemy using silo, submarine, and bomber based nuclear weapons. Unlike other games which force the player to wage war on the developer's platform of choice, this game lets you destroy the world on Linux and Mac OS X as well as Windows.

To add some strategy instead of simple destruction, viable defenses are available if used correctly. One example are the silos which fire interceptor missiles, but only when not firing nuclear missiles themselves, preventing poorly planned attacks from hitting their targets. This creates interesting strategies and bluffs to be used against other human players.
