Toy Soldiers casts you as the commander of miniature armies fighting across trench-filled, First World War-inspired dioramas. The battlefield and soldiers are presented as toys brought to life.
Set up defenses to stop incoming enemy waves, then take direct control of individual emplacements and vehicles. You can aim artillery, pilot biplanes, and maneuver tanks as well as manage the wider battle.
The game combines tower defense with direct-action combat across a series of stages. Campaign, Campaign Plus, and Endless modes offer different ways to face enemy forces, while the available units let you adapt your defenses and attacks.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its blend of tower defense and hands-on action, especially the ability to take control of individual units and vehicles. Reviews also highlight its toy-battlefield style, nostalgic appeal, varied units, and challenging waves. Some players report serious launch and compatibility problems on newer Windows systems, while others say it runs for them.
