Battle of the Eras

About this game

Battle of the Eras is a game created by a group of 14-year old developers, inspired by fighting games popular at the time, like Mortal Kombat II, Street Fighter II, and OMF 2097. It most closely seems to try to emulate the Mortal Kombat series. It has been called the "worst DOS fighter ever", and for good reason. Characters include the XLX-2250 cyborg, Ferekin, Sho-Jin, and the Gatekeeper. Battle of the Eras is a DOS-based turn-based strategy game where players command armies representing different historical periods, from ancient warriors to futuristic forces. The game challenges players to outwit their opponents by leveraging the unique strengths and abilities of their eras units in tactical battles across time.
