The game is military-themed and based on shooting action with squad-based tactics. The player directs troops through numerous missions, battling enemy infantry, vehicles and installations. Cannon Fodder has a darkly humorous tone which commentators variously praised and condemned. Its creators intended it to convey an anti-war message, which some reviewers recognised, but the Daily Star and a number of public figures derided the game. In other respects, reviewers highly praised the game, which widely achieved scores of over 90% in Amiga magazines. Amiga Action awarded it an unprecedented score, calling it the best game of the year. (en)

  • Cannon Fodder è un videogioco d'azione sviluppato dalla Sensible Software. Il videogioco venne sviluppato per i computer Amiga ma in seguito venne portato per quasi tutti i sistemi attivi all'epoca. La serie ha un semplice modello di gioco: i soldati visti dall'alto dell'azione vengono mossi in piccoli gruppi su un ampio campo di battaglia che può scorrere in tutte le direzioni e sono in sostanza "carne da cannone", da qui il nome del gioco. Lo slogan del primo gioco era "War has never been so much fun" ("La guerra non è mai stata così divertente") mentre il secondo episodio utilizzava come slogan "War has only been this fun once before" ("Solo un'altra volta la guerra è stata così divertente").
