Vote to bring this game to GOG and help preserve it.72
I still have the disc for this but haven’t tried to use it since release. It would be interesting to see it revived. The campaign is chaotic and really made the game stand out but it flew under most people’s radar. Worth a vote.
It was bought long long time ago from, I dunno, some store.
With big red box and pretty handy manual. Now it is forgotten I cannot find anywhere CD with this game. So GoG is the only one who can save it.
Music was fun, gameplay odd due to numerous of strange nations, but still RTS is what should be remembered.
This was a superb little RTS that not many people seem to remember or have played. This is one of those games that it's kind of hard to exactly say why it's so great on paper. It doesn't have the best graphics (though they certainly weren't bad) and truth be told there are certainly stronger RTS's out there in terms of core gameplay mechanics.
However what Tribal Rage had going for it was bags of character, a fun, post-apoc style world, and a ludicrous amount of customisation - the amount of stuff you could do in tweaking units was incredible.
And I can still hear my best mate's laugh every time he sent a horde of explodable pigs off at the enemy base!
Eight tribes? Maybe you are an 40 year old edgelord like myself and want to play as a doomsday cult to destroy the world with nukes, gas and luxury limos? Want an easy time? Pick the cyborgs with their OP units which you can make even stronger with armor, or why not use their tanks to just win? Not into tech? Go with the Amazons and show the world why feminism is equality and why all men are pigs that should be stomped until they worship you like the goddess you are, or go all out with bikers and their mighty flying bike and bribes, still not satisfied? Rule law and order as the Enforcers, they got everything and nothing (because it's all super expensive and requires expert gameplay, are you that expert? Then you should rule with jet powered guys that fly over bombs mines and rivers, troops that freeze you, troops that can go invincible, vehicles that crush terrain and destroy mines and everything bad, and much much more, then they run out of ammo and you got nothing you paid a fortune for, also they have super range but are terribly weak) then you got the trailer trash with their awesome Elvis inspired music and cheap units, just buy pigs loaded with explosives until you win with minus points because of all the cheap pigs that went boom lol or go with tractors with flamethrowers and Molotov cocktails, life's cheap yet easy for the trailer trash, lastly you can't choose but still capture the "poor" civilians and pump out their units, they have no vehicles but a bunch of cool heroes that for some reason took the side of the weakest people; Luther, Clint, Vladina the flamethrower (or something I forgot her name but but...)
You don't build units, you click a button and they spawn, likewise you can take over buildings by killing everything inside and entering it, if it weren't that this game has a bunch of ugly bugs it would be one of my absolute games of all time
And still, it's not far from the AI is dumb but the game is fun regardless, also each tribe has heroes
The amount of customization was really ahead of its time. You can create units with different type of attacks! I loved the campy silly funny factions, would love to play this again on an updated windows.

ParaWorldThe game-concept is similar to "Age of Empires", which is a real-time strategy game. ParaWorld features food, wood, and stone as resources. Food can be picked from bushes, hunted from animals, fished from the sea, or farmed. Stone is located in limited deposits, and wood, cut from trees, is generally scattered throughout a map. Battles can occur on both land and sea.
The story takes place in a parallel dimension, where prehistoric life thrives alongside diverse human civilizations that are not technologically advanced. As a result, dinosaurs take the place of traditional wildlife and livestock, though some of the dinosaurs in-game are highly stylized and not necessarily scientifically accurate. Wild-living dinosaurs can be hunted for food, though some are of dangerous and aggressive species and will attack any player unit that wanders too close. Other prehistoric creatures make an appearance as well, for example woolly mammoths are used where other games might feature elephants.
Players advance through epochs in order to unlock new technologies and upgrades.Fantasy Historical

SheepSheep is a combination strategy and puzzle game, featuring light elements of war or battle simulations, built around a wacky story in which space-faring alien explorers from millennia ago devolve into domesticated sheep on Earth. Now their ancestors are trying to round them up by secretly enlisting the aid of two humans (Bo Peep and Adam Half Pint) and two animals (a sheepdog and a pet) through subliminal mind control.
Players take the role of the Earthly "herders" to lead the flocks through six worlds with multiple levels, eventually reaching special rendezvous point where they'll be loaded onto UFOs for the trip back to their home world of Ovis Aries. No direct control is exerted on the sheep so players must manipulate objects and obstacles, as well as rely on the strengths of each herder, to accomplish the tasks. Levels have time limits and a minimum number of sheep to be saved from each flock.Comedy
