Guide a team of up to six soldiers through 72 levels of combat in this top-down action/strategy hybrid, best thought of as Cannon Fodder crossed with Lemmings crossed with Commando crossed with Dune 2. The characters are controlled indirectly using the mouse or joypad, as you activate each soldier or group of them by highlighting them, clicking one button to move them to a particular spot and the another for them to fire guns at an enemy. You can also pick up grenades or rockets, fired by pressing both buttons at once, which can be used to destroy groups of enemies, buildings, or some vehicles.
Each mission has a specific objective, and some feature vehicles such as tanks that are used to make things easier. Your troops can cross water but can't shoot within it, so finding and controlling bridges is often crucial. You can use the arrangement of trees to find hiding places to shoot from and should watch out for CPU soldiers doing the same.
Cannon Fodder was released on Game Boy Color in 2000 and offers a challenging blend of action and strategy that will keep you entertained for hours. With its unique gameplay mechanics and varied levels, it's no wonder why this game has become a cult classic among retro gaming fans.
