KING Art Games are happy to release “Operation Eagle” the first Iron Harvest 1920+ Add-on!
New launch trailer & Steam Standalone Version available
Is it a bird, is it a ship? Maybe a bit of both – Usonia with their giant dieselpunk airships are entering the battlefields of Iron Harvest. KING Art Games are happy to release the first major Add-on for the critically acclaimed RTS Iron Harvest introducing the new USONIA faction, as well as flying units, new multiplayer maps and a new full-fledged USONIA single player & coop campaign. Releasing on Steam (available as a standalone), GOG and Epic, the American Union of Usonia faction (Usonia for short) is completing the World of 1920+ with a perfect fit and offers more variety to the Iron Harvest roster.
War never ends…
While the Great War raged in Europa, those across the Atlantic did not remain unaffected or idle. The American nation of Usonia, seeing the conflict from afar, began strengthening their industry, professionalizing their army and building a powerful air-force. From the frozen landscapes of Alaska to the blazing dunes of Arabia, they now move to take a leading role on the world stage. The question is: Will they come as saviors or conquerors?
Steam exclusive standalone version:
Iron Harvest: Operation Eagle releases on GOG, Epic, and as a Steam exclusive standalone version. The Steam standalone version will not require the base game to play the exclusive DLC content, the intro campaign, co-op and multiplayer with the two factions “Usonia” and “Polania”. The base game content (original campaigns, Rusviet faction, Saxony faction and the challenge maps) will be available as a DLC for the Steam standalone version.
Iron Harvest 1920+ Operation Eagle is OUT NOW! on Steam, GOG and Epic for 19,99€About Operation Eagle:
The American Union of Usonia stayed out of the Great War and became an economic and military powerhouse, unnoticed by Europe’s old elites. Relying heavily on mighty “Diesel Birds”, the Usonia faction brings more variety to the Iron Harvest battlefields.

• The Usonia Campaign (Singleplayer & Coop)
• Three new playable heroes
• New playable allies from the Arabia faction
• New flying units for all factions

Every Iron Harvest 1920+ player will get access to new units, buildings and maps via matchmaking.
Commander, it is time to show your tactical skills once again! With no limitations in multiplayer matchmaking – DLC owners and non DLC owners will be able to play together or test their skills against each other.

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
