Kessen vs Police Quest: SWAT

Kessen is a real‑time strategy game that puts you in charge of massive armies from the Warring States period of 17th‑century Japan. Lead archers, infantry, riflemen, and cavalry across fully 3D battlefields and experience cinematic combat with over 100 movie segments. The game features separate animation routines for every unit and three distinct camera views, delivering a visually immersive experience. Notably, Kessen was the first PlayStation 2 title released on DVD, marking a milestone in console media formats.

Police Quest: SWAT puts you in the shoes of a tactical police unit, demanding careful planning and precise execution. The game blends strategy, simulation, and action as you coordinate squads, manage equipment, and respond to high‑risk incidents. Released in 1995 for PC and Mac, the title offers a gritty, methodical experience that challenges players to think like real‑world law enforcement while navigating the limitations of 1990s graphics and interface design.
