Dunkle Manöver is a turn-based strategy PC game developed and released in 1998 by JoWood Productions. It has an isometric grid-based strategic map that uses real-time elements in battles. The game can be played in single and multiplayer modes through LAN and the internet.

The story revolves around a group of humans who, after the destruction of their homeworld, flee to the planet Azarath for refuge where they find a race of robots called the Zung Legion. There they wage war on each other until an unknown race known as the Rho Star Alliance intervenes and rules over them. The player needs to take control of the forces of either race to ensure their dominance over the planet by an ultimate victory.

The game’s mechanics involve diverse objectives and a module called ‘Dark Strategy’. This module allows the player to use powerful forces to coerce their foes. Each unit has its own strengths and weaknesses making it evident for a player to use tactical thinking and planning to outwit your enemies. Also, the map design of the game is intricate with most of the terrain enabling the players to stay concealed, in this way preparing an ambush on the unsuspecting enemy.

Once a battle starts, it switches to a real-time format where the units are commanded manually. All this comes down to the fact that Dunkle Manöver is one of those games whose strength lies in its game mechanics and strategic gameplay rather than any elegant graphics or animations.

Dunkle Manöver overall provides a challenging and unique turn-based strategy experience with a number of interesting features. It is also noteworthy for its ability to offer a mix of both real-time and turn-based strategy elements. Its approachable learning curve remains an admirable point of the game for newbies and veterans alike to enjoy a great time.
