Overview
War 2410 is a turn-based strategy game for the SNES and the first of two games for the system developed by Advanced Productions for their War series. It was followed by War 3010: The Revolution in 1996. Both games were exclusively released in North America.
The story of the game reveals that humanity began producing genetically-enhanced soldiers in 2003, only for those soldiers to turn on their creators. Four hundred years later, the three groups of humanoid soldiers are fighting mankind and each other for dominance of the planet and its resources. The GDA, the human military group, is tasked with destroying the other three factions: M.A.R.S. (a coalition of humanoid genetic soldiers), the Orcs (resemble the Warhammer 40k Orks) and Chromes (intelligent battle robots).
Gameplay
Each scenario of the game provides the player with a certain number of units of various types and they are required to clear the map of enemy units and complete other objectives. Different units have different attack ranges, different movement limits and different attack strengths. If a target is in range of their aggressor, they will always return fire, even if the initial attack would've destroyed them.
As the game progresses, both the player's army and the opposing army increase in size, as does the size of the map. The game has a total of twenty scenarios and the player is awarded medals dependent on how efficiently they completed the battle.
