What’d you think?: This was a tank combat game, set in a fictionalized Europe in 1929. I don’t know the story, but it was delivered from unsettling 3d modeled faces, uncanny in that wonderful late 90s way. I didn’t figure out how to drive the tank until the third mission; I completed the first two sitting still and letting enemy tanks come to me as I mowed them down. There were menus where you could make lots of choices, but I always just picked the top option and proceeded through the game until I got to a mission where enemy tanks were trying to escape, and I failed to destroy them before they could do so.
