Editorial overview
What it is
Lost Patrol is a survival action role-playing game with strategy elements. In this classic multi-genre DOS game, players take command of the seven survivors of a U.S. helicopter crash in Vietnam, desperately trekking across 57 miles of harsh terrain infested with booby traps and enemy soldiers.
The premise
We 're fit, We 're alive but we're not back home.
Our chopped tailed-out after taking a hit...the pilot won't be leaving the ground again. Now I have to lead my weary platoon back to our lines through the jungles and paddy fields. Entering what appears to be a friendly village, only to find it is a cover for a guerrilla faction, is just one of the things that helps our insomnia...that and the elusive psycho in my squad - I gotta figure out who he is before the morale factor becomes our worst enemy. Jeez, will this stupid war never end!
