Game tiny troopers

It’s a game I have played fairly regularly even up until this day. It had a darkly slanted sense of humor and caused a bit of controversy at the time. The premise was simple: with a basic two-button mouse, control your soldiers though various missions, killing and destroying buildings. This demo was released during the development of Cannon Fodder as a marketing ploy it certainly worked on my twelve-year-old brain. One of these modes replaced the ball with a live grenade. For those unaware of this, it was a special demo of Sensible Soccer, with the only two teams being England and Germany in three scenarios: 1914, 19. It was 1993, and I had been looking forward to the game since the Sensible Soccer VS Bulldog Blighty demo which appeared on the front of what I believe was Amiga Power magazine.

I remember when I first played Cannon Fodder.
