The first real-time strategy game for the GBA, Mech Platoon does a first-rate job of putting high-pressure strategy in the palm of your hand.

Set in the distant future, Kemco challenges you to best two other warring nations in a race to conquer five resource-rich planets.

Following a thorough Tutorial mode, you'll embark on more than 30 missions in the main game. Each mission opens with a briefing that outlines your objectives. You'll need to design and build an army of robots. Doing so requires you to build laboratories, bases and more.

A recycling feature adds a welcome twist to the real-time genre. Your units can scavenge battlefields for pieces left by other robot armies. Recovered parts can be used to upgrade your own units.

With an unpredictable plot, complex missions and deucedly clever enemy AI, Mech Platoon delivers the goods to strategy fans.
