A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Mine is the Army Men series. Objectively mediocre games at best but the concept of toy soldiers fighting over our yards and rooms has always been cool to me

I remember that one! It's honestly pretty fun.

The "World War" mode was a nice headnod to the game's namesake, the boardgame Axis & Allies, though the RTS combat was unique to the PC game.

I enjoyed the use of HQs to both build and limit your forces. It made sense that having multiple infantry corps HQs could let you build a large army, but comparably smaller Airborne or Armor HQs gave you different options with a smaller force.

Very fun game!
