Play The Perfect General online

Strategy fans, sharpen your wits: The Perfect General (1991, DOS) marches onto the battlefield with hex-based tactics, satisfyingly crunchy mechanics, and a strict “no button-mashing” policy. You command armies across campaign maps where every decision matters, down to the last artillery placement. The game is unforgiving but fair, like a stern instructor who secretly wants you to succeed. Its presentation is clean and businesslike, which suits the theme perfectly—war isn’t pretty, but it can be wonderfully methodical. Mastering it feels like earning a diploma in military stubbornness, and once it hooks you, you’ll be muttering about supply lines in your sleep.
