Special Forces is a top-down arcade shooting game with a dash of strategy.
It is the sequel to Airborne Ranger.
When times are rough, the American people rely on their army. And when times are rough, the American army relies on their special forces. A small group of highly trained, superbly skilled, well-armed and clean-shaven elite soldiers boldly go where no man has gone before. At least no honest man.
Special Forces let's you control a team of four in a top-down view and setting reminiscent of Jagged Alliance, only that the time ticks continuously. Consequently, strategy and stealth stand back behind Gauntlet-style arcade action. Moving alone or in squad formation, you shoot enemy soldiers and blow up bunkers, always quick to go in and quicker yet to go out. Goals vary from deploying laser targeting systems for air strikes to assassinations to rescue missions; some assignments take place under cover of darkness, with night vision systems coloring the landscape a gloomy green.

Ninja Burai Densetsu is a 1991 strategy game by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive released exclusively in Japan.
The game plays similarly to other strategy games such as SystemSoft's Daisenryaku games and Sega's own Shining games. You are in control of a team of ninjas fighting another team. C selects a ninja/confirms an action. B cancels an action, or if no action is in progress, selects the next ninja. A opens the battle menu, which allows you to end your turn. Battles are fully automatic. Unique to Ninja Burai Densetsu are side-scrolling special stages: should you move a ninja onto a special space, they will go into a town where they can get various helpful items from townsfolk.
This game can be called an ancestor of the Worms game series. The goal is very simple: you need to destroy the enemy's fortress with the help of cannonballs. However, behind the simplicity, a far more intricate process is hidden.
The Castle allows the player to customize the game settings to diversify each duel: you can change the curvature of the landscape and the height at which the fortresses are relative to each other; you can change the degree of influence of the wind on the shots; you can even choose the magnitude of the gravitational force and the number of hits after which the fortress is considered defeated.
Kommersant is a Soviet computer game developed and released by the Kiev company Rada Ltd in 1991. The author of the game is Vladimir Kharchenko, better known as a poet and artist. The game was distributed free of charge through the FidoNet network and was released on bootleg game discs.
Kommersant is an economic strategy in which events take place in real time, but are paused to await the user's reaction. The player takes on the role of a merchant, whose goal is to increase wealth through commercial transactions: buying and selling, depositing and loaning funds in a bank, buying from dubious persons at a low price, concluding various transactions, and the like.
Very much a snake game, Rattler Race adds a few twists to the long-held conventions of the genre (those being: you guide a snake from a top-down perspective, always in forward motion; it eats its targets and grows in length, but dies should it collide with any obstacles): in addition to a competing snake foiling your routes, a ball bounces around the play-field, Pong-style, killing your snake should the ball ricochet against its head.
The other standout qualities are largely cosmetic: periodically enemy movement "freezes", giving the player a period of free motion; the opposing snake will also "eat" your targets (here "apples" -- occasionally bonus "golden apples") and grow longer, though it doesn't seek them out; gameplay can be conducted with as many as three opposing snakes and three bouncing balls complicating the playfield at once; you head for the exit once all apples are eaten, but the enemy snake(s) can exit instead, restarting the level. Triumph against all these odds and you get 29 more levels of similar
