Turns out war is a lot tidier when it’s turn-based. Battle Isle (1991) gives you neat little hexagons to move your units on, like a very angry board game. It’s got strategy, sci-fi flair, and just enough AI ruthlessness to make you question your life choices. The graphics are basic, the pacing slow, but when you finally flank that enemy base, it’s like winning the strategy nerd Olympics. Just one more turn... right?
