Overview
Description

Hogs of War is a turn‑based tactics game where you command a squad of anthropomorphic hogs in a whimsical battlefield. Each turn you control a single hog from a third‑person view, moving across varied terrain, jumping, swimming, and engaging enemies only when stationary. The game blends strategic depth with slap‑stick comedy, featuring hazards like damaging water, mines, and the possibility of instant death by falling off the map. Play solo or challenge friends in multiplayer modes, all wrapped in a light‑hearted, war‑themed setting.

Worms is a turn‑based strategy game where players command teams of quirky worms, using a vast arsenal of weapons and tools to outwit opponents. The simple yet deep mechanics encourage creative tactics and unpredictable outcomes, making each match a fresh experience. The game supports both single‑player campaigns and multiplayer battles on PC and Mac, offering high replay value through countless strategies and random elements. Its blend of strategy, action, comedy, and warfare has made it a lasting classic since its 1995 release.
