The first strategy video game was Guadalcanal, on an Amstrad CPC6128 (for all the experts). It was released in 1985 and you could barely construct a base then attack with your army, not to mention the dodgy graphics.
25 years later, Kabam took the best of pseudo war games with MC Crisis in Europe. In this game not only can you build loads of bases and raise tons of soldiers, you can also go globetrotting with the troops. And because peace has no price, it's free!

Amazing music gives you piloerections (goosebumps), an exclusive cocktail of catecholamines, adrenaline and dopamine. That's also why we ride roller coasters, watch horror films and ask out girls that will never go out with us ...
