Play Syndicate Wars Online – MS-DOS Game

Game Overview

Syndicate Wars is a dark, isometric action-strategy game and the sequel to the cult classic Syndicate. Set in a dystopian future, you command a squad of cybernetically enhanced agents for one of two factions: the corporate powerhouse EuroCorp Syndicate or the fanatical Church of the New Epoch, both vying for global dominance. The game unfolds across 60 missions in 30 cities, blending tactical combat with strategic decision-making as you receive mission briefings via in-game emails. New weapons like nuclear grenades and psycho gas, along with futuristic transit systems, add depth to the violent, fast-paced gameplay.

The story revolves around Harbinger, a rogue virus disrupting the world’s mind-control implants and sparking chaos. As the syndicates struggle to maintain control, rebel factions like the Unguided emerge, complicating the power struggle. The game’s morally ambiguous narrative highlights the irony of both factions using similar oppressive tactics, further emphasized by the option to play from either perspective. With its mix of squad-based tactics, destructible environments, and multiplayer support (via modem or network), Syndicate Wars remains a standout in the cyberpunk strategy genre.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
