War Planets: Age of Chaos

War Planets: Age of Chaos is a sci-fi real-time strategy game set in the War Planets universe created by the toy company Trendmasters.

The game, created by Trendmasters itself, was published in 1997 exclusively for PC, both in Windows and MS-DOS versions.

Faithful to the RTS tradition, you can choose between four different factions: the Krag, born on planet Rock, Biowolf, from planet Bone, Kryos, from Ice, and Darkones, from Beast. Each race has different and unique units. For example, Biowolf has disk throwers and war dogs, while Krag has stealth tanks and drones, Kryos has jet launchers and death spinners, and so on.

At the beginning of each match, you will have to choose and deploy your units. Positioning is fundamental because, unlike other RTS, units can be hit by friendly fire.

Clearly, this is not Starcraft, but don't let the "toy" origin confuse you. War Planets is a solid strategy game with good depth and balance. If you are a fan of sci-fi strategy games, you will love it.
