Small Soldiers

About

Small Soldiers is a platform game where players control Gorgonites battling Commando toys invading their world. Combat blends running, jumping, and using toy-based weapons in colorful environments. Split-screen multiplayer lets two players team up or fight separately, with straightforward controls and fast-paced action. The game prioritizes simple mechanics over deep strategy, focusing on quick reflexes and level navigation. Released in 1998 for PlayStation, it diverges from the movie’s plot to create its own sci-fi toy war. The Gorgonites’ rock-inspired designs and Commandos’ military tech stand out visually. While not a critical classic, its split-screen mode and lighthearted chaos appeal to fans of 90s platformers. The PlayStation version remains distinct from other Small Soldiers releases, carving out a niche for itself.
