Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games (1996)
Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games is a 1996 rpg video game made by Sir-Tech.
Deadly Games follows up the original Jagged Alliance with a new solo campaign and the series' first multiplayer mode. The scenario design gets more concentrated, the mercenaries are as opinionated as ever, and the tactical layer adds enough new wrinkles to keep veteran players honest. The tone is dry and self-aware: the game knows its soldiers are difficult people and leans into the friction. It is a tighter, more focused package than its predecessor, built for players who already know the team.

A few thoughts on Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games
If the military fiction around mercenary culture appeals, Starfleet Academy - The Assassination Game explores squad loyalty and betrayal in a very different setting. The tone shifts from gritty to sci-fi procedural, but the interest in people under pressure stays.
