In the game, the player assumes the role of an allied officer, who has been entrusted to command a group of commandos on each of the game's twenty missions that they undertake. Each mission's objective varies, but ranges from sabotage, assassination, or rescuing captured allied units, with players having a full view of a mission's map to plan their strategy and its execution in advance.
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines is a single-player real-time tactics video game developed by Spanish company Pyro Studios, published by Eidos Interactive, and released for Microsoft Windows in 1998. The game sees players take control of a group of six Allied Commandos, who conduct a range of missions across wartime Europe and Africa, using small unit tactics.
