Synopsis

Napoleon at Waterloo is a real-time strategy game that covers the Battle of Waterloo (1815). The player controls Napoleon Bonaparte's army and must defeat the enemy.
At first glance, the game has the distinctive look of a wargame: a top-down map with abstract symbols representing terrain and units. However, everything is in real time and therefore the complexity has been reduced. The only thing the player does is give movement orders by choosing a unit and moving the cursor to where it needs to move. These commands are not executed instantly; Each movement takes a certain amount of time depending on terrain and unit type. Battles are started automatically when a unit gets close to an enemy. Then they trade blows until one unit loses all of its soldiers. The game also takes into account fatigue and morale.
Time is measured with an in-game clock and a match ends after eleven hours (30 minutes in real time). Whether the player won a match depends on the score achieved which is based on losses.
