The Lost Patrol (1991, DOS) drops you into the brutal jungles of Vietnam, where survival depends on strategy, luck, and maybe divine intervention. You lead a squad of exhausted soldiers trying to reach safety, managing morale, hunger, and constant ambushes. It’s part war simulation, part interactive tragedy. Between the haunting music and the grim realism, the game makes you feel the heat, fear, and futility of a hopeless mission. Don’t expect a happy ending — it’s more Apocalypse Now than Rambo.

The Lost Patrol review

Zero Magazine issue 5 (1990) - "What The Lost Patrol is all about is atmosphere. And it scores. You feel tension with every step your party takes. You get a feeling of 'it's not fair'. You get a feeling of 'why do we have to be here?', but you are there, so you have to carry on. That's the intention. The war isn't glorified, but you're not allowed to play the pacifist humanitarian. Well, you are, but you'd be dead in about two pico-seconds. I could say 'first you do this, then you do that and then you do this and that and the other' but that would spoil the game. Anyway - the real soldiers in Vietnam weren't told what to expect, so why should you? What I will say, however, is that there's a certain 'random element' in the game. Luck. Just like real life."
