Play Waterloo Online
You pick Napoleon or Wellington, then sweat over every move as those little pixel armies clash—one bad cavalry charge and your whole battle plan falls apart. The AI punishes mistakes hard, just like real history.
Waterloo was part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, though specific developer or publisher details for that release are not widely documented. It belongs to that era of strategy titles where historical accuracy and turn-based mechanics took precedence over flashy presentation, fitting right in among other thoughtful, methodical games of the time.
You command either Napoleon's French forces or Wellington's Allied army, directing infantry, cavalry, and artillery across a hex-based map of the battlefield. Your main goal is to outmaneuver and break the enemy's morale through tactical positioning and timed assaults. Key mechanics include managing unit fatigue, coordinating combined arms attacks, and reacting to unpredictable weather that can bog down advances. The pacing is deliberate, almost tense; one misjudged flanking move can quickly unravel hours of careful planning. It feels like conducting a fragile, high-stakes orchestra where every instrument must play its part perfectly.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
