War Inc.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the real-time strategy game. For the 2008 film, see War, Inc..

War Inc. is a real-time strategy computer game developed by Optik. It was published by Interactive Magic on August 31, 1997. It was fairly unique at the time in its incorporation of a rudimentary stock market, placing the player directly in control of research and development, and the ability to completely customize units by using a variety of components.

[edit] Reception

War Inc. received an overall rating of 66% from GameRankings from 3 different review sites.[1] While it was panned as being "mediocre" for not living up to its potential by GameSpot[2], Game Revolution praised it for "[giving] the player the flexibility to create a nearly unlimited variety of units."[3]
