Fields of Glory

This is the first game i bought and played. I spent a lot of time with it and i am happy to see it finally released officially again. It gives a good impression of the battles, with nice sounds effects and colors. It was a great game back then. It's still fun today. The AI is not very good and if you don't make too many mistakes, you should be fairly easy to win the battles even on the hardest settings. There is a lot of information in the game about the generals and the armies. A lot of research efforts have been put into this game to make it as accurate as possible. I will go through all the battles again and try to improve my scores. Make sure not to send your artillery through cities or rivers. What is missing so far is the amazing manual that was released back then with lots of historical notes on the battles, the armies and the generals. I hope they will add it.

A classic DOS game from the 90's. I have many fond memories of staying up late into the night playing this game as a kid, and while it's dated, the devs did a great job here, and include directions to slow it down to work better with modern CPUs.

This is a game that I spent hours on as a kid. The mechanics are all there... unfortunately, the unit animations are sped up due to the game being run in DOS box. It's a deal breaker for me, as it kills my enjoyment. I'm sure I'll be glad at some point that this game is in my Steam library. There are other online alternatives for playing this game in its original glory. If you can get past the animation issue, it's FOG just like you remember it.

Old style PC Game, historically accurate though patently dated. What's not to love?

Great little game that runs well on modern hardware. I'd love to see more games like this with easy controls but a lot of things going on under the bonnet.

This game was one of the best around for 1993. I was around 12 when I played this for the first time and it was amazing!! Still is here on Steam if you get past the unit jitters. The original played much smoother than this version. Luckily I still have the original CD-Rom, and a old Windows 3.1 machine to play it on.

Old time dos game. Easy to learn & Lots of fun. I love the cav charging through a wind mill.

You want a throwback to the Com 64 this is your game

This MicroProse Napoleonic strategy game received only mediocre reviews on its release in 1993. It hasn't aged well. To the modern eye, the graphics are difficult. The game features six battles fought in real time between Napoleon and his foes. Most of the screen is unhelpful. How relevant is the terrain? Are there objectives? How do I even order units around? The game comes with no instructions. It does come with a PDF file, a manual if one cares to read it. Even with the basics under control, maneuvering is still confusing and tiresome.
