The giant tank rumbles toward its target . . . its guns are gone, its movement crippled, but only a few defenders are left. Will they stop the robot juggernaut, or will it crush the Command Post beneath its gigantic tracks?
Ogre was Steve Jackson’s first game. It’s a fastmoving, hex-based wargame in which the defender has a force of armor and infantry. The attacker has a single giant tank, the Ogre, with many guns . . . and it can only be destroyed a piece at a time.
Originally published in 1977, it was a hit as the first “Microgame,” and is now considered a classic.
Over 25 years after its release, Ogre earned a spot in James Lowder’s popular book Hobby Games: The 100 Best.
