Cannon Fodder

This is a great game but something is wrong with sound in this version. I played this first on the Atari ST and then I think on win98 and it didn't sound this bad.

I played this game on amiga as a kid. It was a great game then and its a great game now. I recently sad down to play pc gog version and cannot recommend it. The difference is sound effects and music. It's just straight up worse. Lack of the very catchy song at the beginning almost killed it for me. Also the cartoony characters are out of place. Second thing is design of the levels. I remembered them being unfair but some of them and just trail and error. Designed to waste your recruits and making you start from the beginning with new knowledge of the level gimmicks so you can handle later missions. So if you can get an amiga version and emulate it -go with that. Much better sound/music and save states saving you lots of time. Just don't abuse them too much because learning the levels and their gimmicks is part of the fun. ps. Don't listen to anyone who says higher rank=better soldier. Just like in real world higher rank just gives you fancier grave. Another layer of anti war message. Such a great game!

I remember Amiga edition, then it was something incredible. Now the fun, and gameplay are still great!

This game rocked when it came out, even though it is very simple. But it has a very cute look and you will end up enjoying it very much. There was one game from sensible software that topped this one and that is wizkid. I hope you we will get wizkid on gog someday. :-) Great software from a great company.
