COMMANDER ‘85

FORMAT PS4 / ETA AUTUMN PUB ULTIMATE GAMES DEV THE MOONWALLS

Blending survival gameplay with adventure and hacking simulation, Commander ‘85 is the ‘War Games meets D.A.R.Y.L.’ mashup kid-us never had. It’s so ’80s you can smell the sweaty Air Jordans. Having received a Commander ‘85 computer for your birthday, things swiftly get weird. People die, the government wants you, and your new computer seems to be running the show. Using a simulation of DOS you can hack secret records and venture out on your BMX to track down clues. When not clearing your name, why not watch a VHS film, play Frogger, or tune the Boombox?
