I had this to the Amiga 500, don't remember to much of it though, I was more into my monkey island and the mega lo mania game at that time and the diskettes was among those in my collection ruined by a brother and a glass of milk, rip my lucas arts adventure collection as well.

Lol Haze, yup, us too. Such an awesome game.

I get sweaty palms from the cover art alone. The long nights with my friend playing this to get scared shitless by angry mom bursting in to the room: " YOU'RE STILL UP? WHAT IS THIS NONSENSE!"

Holy shit, someone actually not just remembers, but actually played this game? I almost forgot about it myself, though I barely played it

It was actually made by the guy that did XCOM EU. XCOM was intended to be the sequel to this game. Laser Squad is the great great grandfather of XCOM 2.

me either

Never heard of this one

Laser Squad

Another friend had an Amiga. Wow that computer amazed me. What an incredible piece of technology, way ahead of its time. Laser Squad was almost a board game. You had a map and a certain number of moves you could do in your turn. After one player was finished you had to cover your eyes and let the other player take their turn as you were attacking their compound and they were defending and you weren’t supposed to know where each other were until you bumped into each other and then combat began. Think of it as a very, VERY early XCOM Enemy Unknown. It was one of the first TBS games I ever played and it was insanely good fun. Little bit of trivia…this was actually originally released on the ZX Spectrum but I didn’t play it until the Amiga version was released.
