Z
A 90s RTS classic where nobody gathers resources: you race to grab territory, factories build your army, and the robots you command are lazy, sarcastic and hilarious. Twenty levels of frantic capture-the-flag warfare across five planets, with comedy cutscenes and a battle that changes with the music. Fast, funny and unapologetically old school.
