Game Review

Cannon Fodder: war has never been so much fun, is an action-strategy shoot 'em up game developed by Sensible Software and published by Virgin Interactive for the Amiga in 1993. The huge success of the game convinced Virgin to port it to several platforms, including Atari ST, DOS, SNES, Mega Drive and many more.

The player has to control soldiers, seen from a top down (bird-eye) view typical of Sensible Software (eg. Sensible Soccer), through numerous missions, killing enemy infantry and installations.

With great gameplay, funny animations and graphics and a dark humorous tone, Cannon Fodder is considered by many the best Amiga game ever.

    In modern days I don't play games a lot and sometime buy something but with all these modern technologies, 3D I find most of the games boring after 5-10h of playing. That is not comparable to those old games with no graphic but so big atmosphere.
    Then I turned to buying old game on GOG but it found it to be working on PC only while I have Mac.
    Trying to find alternative I came to your site ... and found treasure! All these games you ported - they all from my childhood. Heroes 2 is best on PC at that time, Warcraft 2 and now (I couldn't even imagine) Cannon Folder - tons of hours were spent and enjoyed on Sega.
    Thank you for all these games! You are the best!
    P.S. Please send me a mail and I'll donate with card :) unfortunately I don't have paypal
