This game is one of those games that just live in my mind forever, I don't know when I played it for the first time but the sound of the bridge collapsing the wind and the discus throwing towers will forever be something I remember

This is a very unique game, that is still in a working state, the only thing it lacks is distribution and maybe some polishing. I was too little to enjoy it when it was a hit, I want just to play it again.
This was the very first PC game I ever played. My dad introduced me to it and we enjoyed theory crafting and going through it together. It was also the first online game I ever played. I can't think of anything else quite like it

This is one of the most unique strategy games of all time, an innovative mix of RTS, chess, go, and Tetris! Crazy! The setting is very interesting too: the battles take place on floating island between rival fury factions. The multiplayer was way ahead of its time too. Basically you created an account that would level up as you won matches, and the more you leveled up the more technologies you could buy. It was like a proto-MMORTS. Some gaming mags at that time claimed it would change the face of RTS games forever. Sadly this was not the case as the game sold extremely poorly. Anyway the game is still being maintained by the community, with working multiplayer and even custom maps. Highly recommended to any strategy game fanatic!

One of the first PC games I ever played. Strategic part holds up to this day. Fun fact: the german voice files had not been redubbed, but they just revered the english ones to play some undefined gibberish

I love NetStorm so much. Back in the day, there were servers and it was the very first game I ever played online. (It's great single-player too.) I was so tickled because I (in U.S.) was playing against a person from Australia and that was quite novel in the 20th century!! Such a fun game, too. Like nothing else I've ever played. Like another person said, the sounds and gameplay have followed me for years. Would scoop it up instantly if it were on GOG.

Is a unique Tower atak game with real time strategy gameplay. A RTS tower atak game!! The game stats harmless and easy at the early missions and rampes the hell up to a hardcore difficulty only older games have. Speed pecission combination and strategy are the main factores to master here. It is worth bringing it to gog, because there is no oter game out there which is like it and combines the combinational and stratetigal thining so well.
