Mech Brigade

Mech Brigade (1987) is a strategy game that lets you live out your dream of commanding an army of giant robots. Set in a futuristic battlefield, you’re in charge of deploying mech units, managing resources, and outmaneuvering the enemy with cold, mechanical precision. The gameplay is turn-based and surprisingly deep for its era. Each mech has strengths and weaknesses, and positioning is everything. One bad move can cost you half your squad. The interface is pure ’80s DOS, but once you get used to it, the tactical possibilities open up. Mech Brigade rewards careful planning and punishes reckless decisions. It’s a thinking person’s war game — with robots.
