ATAC: The Secret War Against Drugs

ATAC (1992) is what you get when someone says, “What if we made SimCity, but for waging the War on Drugs?” You play as the head of an anti-narcotics task force, deploying units, tracking smugglers, and launching airstrikes like it's your daily to-do list. The tone is serious, the mechanics are complex, and the politics… let’s just say subtlety isn’t in ATAC’s vocabulary. It’s part simulator, part arcade game, part propaganda — but strangely compelling if you’re into micromanagement with a side of moral ambiguity.
