“The future is chaos and chaos is you!” - The Exploited “Chaos is My Life”.
The World United Solidarity (WUS) has made life boring in the year 2050. No sex, no booze, not even candy cigarettes were allowed. The people were tired of being WUS-sies, they had enough of censorship on TV and on the internet. Enter the Chaos Overlords. Former crimelords and CEOs, these leaders decided to capitalize on the people by creating chaos - selling the populace all the drugs, high-caliber weaponry, and pornography they desired. The cities have become battlegrounds as the Chaos Overlords vie for power as they attempt to destroy each other.
You are a Chaos Overlord. The city lies vulnerable before you, waiting for all the chaos that you can bring. Wage a strategic war of influence on an 8x8 grid that represents city blocks. Hire gangs at the beginning of each turn and seize control of the city, block by bloody block. Research new items for your gangs to equip so they can dominate your enemies’ gangs in combat. It’s time to make some chaos, so go out there and kick some neck!
More than 70 unique gangs, such as the Disgruntled Postal Workers, Renegade Nuns, or the Bankers.
Sow chaos and disorder with more than 50 weapons, performance-enhancing items, and armor types.
A complex strategic layer of gameplay where you can snitch on your opponents, bribe the police, and engage in gang-to-gang battles.
This is a turned based strategy game, that it played on a grid/board like chess.
Its futuristic/cyberpunk game, and do rely recommend it . This game does not work on win 10
It has an aftertaste of MTG mixed with Cyberpunk an turf war, but it is a great old memory. I spent hours and hours trying to take over the city, and the AI is definitely worth it, challenging and taking avantage of the different strategies the game offers. Great game, that used to abandonware, but is very welcome in the gog updated catalogue!
I only played the demo version, when it was released back in the 90ies, but I totally loved it and played even that limited version for days after days. I was so happy to find it on gog.com, but unfortunately it doesn't really run on win8 (white rectangles and stuff). So a patch/update would be really nice...
One of the most genuinely difficult games I've played in a good long time (but in a good way, mind you), Chaos Overlords is a cyberpunk-themed strategy game that challenges the player to conquer a hellish cityscape by any means necessary, using hired goons and thugs to accomplish the player's dirty work. Although it may seem like a very bare-bones experience at first, it honestly has a lot of depth to its game-play, and it quickly becomes exceptionally addicting after a little while. Be warned, it can and will frustrate you with its difficulty, but the experience, so I believe, ultimately pays off in the end.
Quite unique cyberpunk themed board game type strategy game. Fun against computer but really fun against human player. Or atleast it was on Windows 7. It does not work properly on on Windows 10. For several years me and many others have been trying to get it to work and failed. I fish GOG could fix it.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
