Description
He who controls the swill controls the universe. It really is that simple.

An untapped supply of swill has just been discovered on the uninhabited archipelago of Saustralasia deep in the South Pigsific Ocean, and every Hog Nation wants the land as its own. Gone are the days of scratching around for drips of swill. Saustralasia’s 25 regions are drenched in the stuff, and the only way to ensure that no one else gets their filthy trotters on the delicious swill is WAR!

Your task will not be an easy one. To successfully conquer and exploit Saustralasia you will need to seek and destroy the enemy across each and every one of the archipelago’s six islands, from Hogshead all the way down to Arstria. Our resources are limited, you have to maintain a rather small army, but with every victory on the field of battle, your swine will learn more skills and acquire the use of a wider range of weaponry.

There will be slaughter and butchery. Your job will be to bring victory to your chosen nation, to save your own bacon and make a meal of your enemies. With victory comes great reward. So great in fact that your brave boars will be as happy as pigs in… well, you get the idea.
  • Explosive 25 level single player campaign and an addictive online multiplayer mode for up to four players.
  • Arm your hogs to the teeth with a choice of 40 different weapons including sniper rifles, bazookas, mines, jetpacks, cluster grenades, and tanks.
  • Fight for one of six different pig armies, each one based on a real nation from the First World War-era: Great Britain, Russia, Germany, Japan, France, or the USA.
  • Customize your squad as you promote your hogs from Grunt to Officer in one of four different classes - Heavy Weapons, Medic, Espionage, or Engineer.
  • Cheeky sense of humour brought to life by the vocal talents of renowned British comedian Rik Mayall.

Doesn't work on Win 11

Don't even try. I bought it in a sale for pennies, so no point in requesting a refund. Hopefully GOG will fix it one day. Who knows?

Doesnt work with win 10.

It could work with xp/win7 but with windows 10 menus are super laggy no matter if you tweak craphic settings from the game and also as someone here said the enviroment bugs and makes it unplayable... I wish they would add warning with incompability beucase currently its a bit misleading (i assume all games work with win 10).

Worked of course

Best work on Win XP. Less on Vista and more less on Win7 (retail CD version). Digital version work good on any of this (some troubles with green pigs in main menu with Steam Overlay). And work well after some tweaks on Win8. Lurk PCGamingWiki, Microsoft site or Google for Windows compatible problems. Do not use "patch" from always noobish Steam Community guides. it broke multiplayer and music functional. Must use only 1 dll file - not any more. No compatible options - turn off any (yes, and ones from GOG installer itself too) except ofc adminrun. Руссиан: Не юзайте кастомный exe - он ломает игру. Не ставьте совместимости. Гуглите получше, в общем, а не качайте что попало из первых же ссылок.

Rarest Fun Game Ever!

The game is just too funny and also simple - a baby could already play it - maybe the reason for the offline multiplay modes for up to four cpu or human players on one screen!

AVOID

It doesn't even work on modern operating systems, and when it does work, it's a completely messed up port. Do not buy, even if you have strong nostalgia for the game, you'll be highly disappointed
