The Battle of the Bulge: Tigers in the Snow is a turn-based strategy computer wargame published in 1981 by Strategic Simulations. It was designed by Chuck Kroegel, David Landrey, and David Walker for the Apple II, Atari 8-bit computers, and TRS-80. It was later ported to the IBM PC and Commodore 64.[1]

It was the first video game to feature the Battle of the Bulge of 1944 and 1945, a decisive Allied victory over German forces in World War II, as its subject.[2] Heavily inspired by board games, the game was played on a hexagonal grid and included such features as a supply, terrain and weather system.
