Play North and South Online
Control Union or Confederate forces, move armies on a map, and engage in frantic side-scrolling battles while managing troops and robbing supply trains in North and South.
North and South came out on the NES in 1989, published by Infogrames. It was a strange and clever little game for its time, a mix of strategy and action that felt different from most other titles on the console. It didn't try to be an epic; it was just a fun, oddball take on the American Civil War.
You control either the Union or Confederate forces, moving armies on a strategic map to capture states. The real fun starts when two armies meet, switching to a side-scrolling battle where you directly command your troops. You run around placing cannons, managing infantry, and trying to rob the enemy's supply train as it chugs across the screen. The pace is frantic, a little silly, and surprisingly difficult to master. It feels like playing with toy soldiers in a very chaotic, very entertaining sandbox.
