Special Forces is a video game developed by Sleepless Knights and published by MicroProse in 1992 for the Amiga, Atari ST and PC DOS. In the game, a team of special operatives are to infiltrate enemy territory to complete various objectives. It is a sequel to Airborne Ranger.[1]
Gameplay
[edit]Special Forces lets the player select a team of four from a squad of eight operatives. Once a mission is selected in one of the four regions (temperate zone, arctic, desert and jungle - daytime and nighttime variants) the player is briefed. Objectives range from hostage rescues, destroy specific objects, reconnaissance missions.
The game displays a top-down view of a part of the mission area in various configurations (one viewport per soldier up to four views at the same time in split-screen mode). The player also has access to a strategic battle map with enemy locations visible (there is no fog of war in the game).
