Let’s play global thermonuclear war.

MAD is a real time strategy game depicting a future battle between two
superpower alliances. Each side is attempting to eliminate the other’s cities
with nuclear missiles and defend their own with orbiting weapons platforms.

A player starts with a number of ground territories and loses when the last
one is destroyed (there’s no expansion). Each territory provides money and
uranium to build weapons and can be home to a spaceport and a nuclear missile
silo. In space, players build orbiting stations with science labs that allow
technology advancements and anti-missile weapons that can protect the
territories beneath them. Missiles are fired at the enemy with a semi-arcade
control system that requires quick reflexes to be accurate.

There are ten single player scenarios (which are really just different
starting conditions) and an option for 1 on 1 modem or internet battles.
