Small Soldiers: Globotech Design Lab is a 1998 PC strategy/action game based on the film Small Soldiers. In it, you can either design and build your own squad of soldiers or choose from pre-built characters. The two teams are the Gorgonites or Commando Elite. You choose specific parts you want your soldiers to have, such as arms and legs. You can also choose what kind of computer chip controls the soldier, what kind of voice they have and what weapons he will carry. After you create your soldiers, you then battle the opposite team. It was published by Hasbro Interactive.

Do you like to create a character where most of the assets don't even look like they make sense on any other body than the one they were intended for?
Do you like fighting games that are about 60% functional?
Are you 10 years old and a fan of the movie Small Soldiers?
Then you are in luck! Small Soldiers: Globitech Design Lab has almost nothing to do with the movie, but it has just the right overall feel that these characters kind of make sense.
Otherwise there's really not much here for newcomers, but as someone who was just old enough to get into this, I was greeted by a surprising amount of reward for winning fights that I just kept coming back.
Do I recommend this to anyone? No. But I definitely have a soft spot for a game that really understood how dopamine triggers work, and there was nothing quite like getting all of the "awards" for winning fights quickly and without taking damage.
