Description
Bullfrog cyberpunk real-time strategy, Syndicate sequel where a corporation deploys its cybernetic agents in the future metropolis. Created by Bullfrog Productions and Electronic Arts, released in 1996 in the United States and Europe, 1997 in Germany with multilingual versions under the Syndicate Wars title. Over sixty real-time strategic missions with four-cyborg teams, isometric 3D view with free rotation, over twenty futuristic weapons, two Syndicate and Church campaigns and industrial soundtrack. European multilingual editions.
In the service of a megacorporation, you command cyborg agents armed with a weapon of choice: the Persuadertron, which simply flips civilians' brains to enlist them into your ranks. Manipulating crowds, leveling neighborhoods and counting passersby as mere resources is all in a day's work, and the company's cause is enough to justify everything without debate.
Is Syndicate Wars still worth playing in 2026?
A sequel to Bullfrog's classic, Syndicate Wars commands a squad of cybernetic agents in isometric 3D futuristic cities, carrying out missions of control, sabotage and elimination in a ruthless corporate dystopia. The near total destruction of the scenery, the freedom of approach and the dark cyberpunk mood stay striking. The pad control, poorly suited, and difficult readability have aged. A great strategy action game for fans of cyberpunk tactics and Bullfrog heritage.
