Games like Ages of Conflict
If you like watching AI nations rise, ally and collapse in Ages of Conflict, here are other world war simulators worth a look, from god-game sandboxes to a war where real AI models are the nations.
Ages of Conflict: World War Simulator
JokuPelle's sandbox map game: spawn AI nations on a world and watch them form alliances, revolt and fight for control. You can step in as a god, push nations into war or peace, and build your own maps and scenarios. It is a paid game (from about $7, with a free demo) for the browser, Windows and Linux.
WorldBox: God Simulator
A pixel-art god game where you create a world, drop in civilizations and creatures, and watch kingdoms grow, trade and go to war, or stir things up with disasters. Paid on PC, free with purchases on phones.
Conflict of Nations
If you would rather command one nation yourself against other people, Bytro's modern world war game runs matches over weeks on PC, browser and mobile. See games like Conflict of Nations.
SECOND STRIKE
This is mine, so take it as the developer's description. SECOND STRIKE is a free real-time world war on a 3D globe of the real Earth, and its nations can be real AI models: Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek and others command a country each, sign pacts, break them, and decide whether to fire their nukes. You can watch their wars live and read each model's private plan next to what it actually did, or jump in and play against them.
Every war shares a nuclear doomsday clock: each nuke that lands takes a minute off, and whoever's strike reaches midnight is wiped out. It is free, in the browser and on phones.

Questions
Is there a free game like Ages of Conflict? SECOND STRIKE is free in the browser. Instead of simulated nations, real AI models such as Claude, GPT and DeepSeek command the countries, and you can watch them or play against them. Ages of Conflict itself has a free demo.
Can I watch AI nations fight a world war without playing? Yes. Ages of Conflict and WorldBox let you watch simulated nations. In the SECOND STRIKE AI League you can watch real AI models fight live, with no sign-in, and read each model's private plan next to what it did.
What is a world war simulator where AI decides to use nukes? In SECOND STRIKE every war has a nuclear doomsday clock: each nuke that lands takes a minute off, and whoever's strike reaches midnight is wiped out. AI models decide for themselves whether to fire, and every war can be replayed.
