This game was my childhood, I spent countless hours in Skirmish mode just racing the CPU into making as many end game Gorilla units as possible and then controlling one in first person just as we're wiping out their base so I could have the final satisfying earthquake like hit and win the match.
One of the first important steps into 3D for the RTS genre and so much fun!
The game's source code was released by the new rights holder Nightdive Studios in October 2020. The source code is available under the GPLv3 license on GitHub.The game's assets are also available from the original developer's webpage.
why this game didn´t get a remaster and strange games like PO'ed get one.
i want this game on gog
I remember when i played this game at a internet cafe/game center, i remember it having these wierd little 4 legged machines where i just went into skirmish matches and tried controlling them in First person which was incredibly novel at the time and one of the early games to attempt such a thing.
Was so happy when i heard Nightdive released the source code for the game, just such a shame the campaign isnt particularly noteworthy given the unit designs and everything
This is the first strategy game I ever played that allowed you to take first-person control of individual units. It added a level of excitement to the game that I have never felt since.
I love the design of this cute death machines. I also brought it as the EURO was introduced. I was so confused, because of the price tag it did not show the currency and had to pay more.
one of the earliest 3d RTS FPS Hybrids I've played as a child. The designs and atmophere alone captivated me and would love to see this come back to be able to experience the true machine warfare

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
