Strategic Simulations, Inc (SSI) je tvrtka koja se bavila proizvodnjom igara za igraće konzole i računala.
Kompaniju SSI je 1979. godine osnovao Joel Billings, zaljubljenik u ratne igre. Njegov prvi zaposlenik bio je Ed Williger koji će ubrzo napisati igru Computer Bismarsk što izlaskom na računalo Apple II 1980. godine tvrtki donosi prvi uspjeh zahvaljujući čemu se pravi i obrada za kompjuter TRS-80 koju godinu potom. Uspjesi početnih godina će dovesti do zapošljavanja novih programera među kojima će se naći i buduća ikona strateških igri Gary Gipsy.
Kako je bavljenje samo strateškim igrama postao ograničavajući faktor Joel Billings počinje 1984. godine praviti svoje prve role-playing igre Wizard's Crown i Questron. Uspjeh tih početnih pokušaja rezultira kupovinom od strane SSI prava na proizvodnju igri iz serije Advanced Dungeons & Dragons. To zlatno desetljeće SSI ipak dolazi svojem kraju na početku devedesetih. Nakon dvije neuspješne fiskalne godine Billings 1994. godine prodaje svoju kompaniju konkurentskoj softwerskoj firmi Mindscape koja će sama biti kupljena od Mattela 1999. godine samo da bi na kraju završila kod Ubisofta koji odlučuje 2001. godine prestati koristiti ime Strategic Simulations, Inc.
Danas gledajući s povijesne distance legendarne igre ove kompanije su bile Computer Bismarck, Roadwar 2000, Heroes of Lance, Pool of Radiance, Conflict: Middle East, Second Front i Panzer General. Kompanija je inače u računalskoj zajednici bila veoma često ismijavana zbog svoje neprestane reciklaže neke uspješne igre. Tako je softverska baza od Pool of Radiance korištena u još 13 igara, dok je Panzer general I doživio 6 nastavaka u samo 24 mjeseca.
