I find it impossible not to salute when this is playing. Jools, Jops, Stoo, RJ, CJ, Chris, Ubik, Windy, Wifta... gone but not forgotten. Rest in peace, you brave, brave little soldiers.
As your men in the game die, the hill starts to fill with crosses... Its a great contrast to the line of men in front of the door waiting eagerly to be recruited. And the music fits extremely well to the whole scene. It is one of the greatest anti-war games ever, and a legend among gaming fans.

Remember playing this on the amiga when it first came out, i'm 28 now, and to this day cannot forget the names of Jools, Jops, Stu and RJ. The first 4 soldiers you get. Losing one of those men felt like you lost a brother. Epic game that even today can entertain for hours!
@@feralferret yes. my brother was 7 years older than me and i'd watch him all the time. I could only do the first few levels but being simple point and click it was easy enough for my young self to control.
I was too young to understand the message of this game back in the day. But coming back to play it again now it fills me with a sadness I didn't realise a video game could give me. There is nothing quite like Cannon Fodder.
Yeah! It was the first game that really gave me a sense of loss, not like another game where you just click continue. These soldiers had names and ranked up so it felt personal when you lost one and seeing their graves was a constant reminder and that amazing haunting track really set a tragic scene. Unforgettable!
This game has anti-war message. Especially at this screen with that music. A queue of recruits who really wants to join the war. They don't know what soon gonna be. Death awaits at every corner. Enemy soldiers, grenades, rocketers, turrets, tanks and helicopters just wait to tear them apart. Mantraps and booby-traps. Even debris, roofs, trees and even snowmans wants their death. And after death they got buried at this hill and got a tombstone, depending on their rank. And why they needed that for? War is not a funny game. You go, you kill people, destroy their tanks and facilities or get shot and your body goes back to your country in a wooden box. This is not a Call of Duty or Medal of Honor - you don't have a LOAD or RESPAWN option. You fight once and DIE once and for all. Think about this when you watch an war movie and think that taking part in a war must be so cool. War it's not FUN! (sorry for my english)
Bit late but you're so right. It totally went over my head as a kid but as an adult the game really does have a strong anti war message. Glad it's not just me :)
Richard Joseph was my favourite musician of that era and i was genuinely upset when i found out that he had died. He and Rob Hubbard especially made some fantastic arrangements in their careers. Rip Richard
I remember that hill after mission 19. =( There was no room for tombstones anymore, so I stopped playing and stared at the screen, realizing what I'v done.
Isn't it bitterly hilarious that such an anti-war, humanist game with these themes of loss and futility was slated in the tabloids with headlines like "BAN THIS SICK FILTH"? Absolute insanity.
British tabloids - what do you expect? The tabloids also blame gaming for knife crimes and shootings. How they figure that out I'll never know. I mean, I grew up playing Paperboy and Chuckie Egg but never once stole eggs or threw a newspaper at someone's window.
just hearing the first few seconds sends chills down my spine (again) and makes a tear in the left eye swell up (again). First time I heard this I was in grade 1!
I still listen to this; the nostalgia is haunting. I hope the gamers of tomorrow read their history and learn about pre-1995 gaming. It didnt start with doom.
William Amen brother. The demo scene (Assembler, Revision, Breakpoint parties etc) are one of the last bastions of the golden era.

Играл в те далёкие времена, на 486. Легендарная игра с сильным подсмыслом, когда приходят новые рекруты, а кресты всё растут и растут. Шикарная музыка.
Меланхолическа, но уверенная и решительная, в ней чувствуется превозмогание и забота о родном крае и людях его населяющих. Королевский регион понятное дело обиделся на "Война ещё никогда не была такой весёлой' и красный мак, но они яно не углядели этого подсмысла, о том, что война это всегда плохо.
+Osmorosvo Yeah, if anything, its one of the best games ive ever played in regards to making me sad and feeling loss for when the little guys died. Because they became important to you. Its actually kinda sad that more games dont do this. It was emotionally painful to see that entire hill full of gravestones. The cost of war.... Their really never is a winner.
I don't have the words to describe this song, the game and the emotional maturity it taught me as a young kid playing this. Apart from maybe Xcom I know of no modern games that teach you about loss in such a powerful way
Me too. These games sountracks inspire me to learn to play synth. These melodies is so beautiful that you feel they tearing your heart apart. It is nostalgic stuff for sure, but I am positive, if I've listen this song for the first time, it would also had a very emotional impact on me.
True that man. Remember also those instances where certain soldiers and terrorists are fatally wounded (but not dead) and are suffering in pain? You're prompted to perform a mercy kill OR if agitated to keep on shooting the body across the map before it disintegrates! This game was pretty outstanding at the time.
Reading through comments... i mean... it is just amazing what they were able to create with such limited ressources. I feel exactly like many of you describe, and this music is as haunting today as it was back then.
i loved this, but i thought i was weird for loving amiga game music so much lol. but now i've seen this i'm not alone with my love for amiga music, it's why i played the games so much i think, i used to get to this recrutment screen and just listen for ages not realising how long for ;-) well done on your choice of video' top job m8ty.

From the Cannon Fodder manual: And on a more serious note: don`t try playing this at home, kids, because war is not a game - war, as Cannon Fodder demonstrates in it`s own quirky little way, is a senseless waste of human resources and lives. We hope that you never have to find out the hard way.
I can't agree with You more Friend. I remember good old days in Poland when I was kid Amiga was everything I had back then. It was long, long ago but when I surf through these old amiga's titles, memory came back to me with a hurricane speed. These are excellent memories. Nice :)

@JonHareGames the instrumental part from 1:14 to 1:44 didn’t appear in your original song ('Narcissus'), at least as a lead part (rather than a pad). I think it really adds a lot, it's so pure, standalone (evoking lonesomeness) and contemplative.
I remember the PC opening being a fully rendered video o: but this game always holds a special place in my heart..especially when Jools and Jops get high ranks and let the fresh blood do all the work c:
Ta gra jest chyba najlepszą w historii, jak sie w to grało to czlowiek zapominal o calym swiecie a jak patrzylo sie jak ktos gra to tak jakby to byl film akcji... Po prostu super, a muzyka po tylu latach wywoluje dreszcze na plecach...
Pretty much. And with such a sad, beautiful song in the background, it just makes it even more brilliant. This game is just too fucking brilliant. Such a genious gameplay with a strong anti-bellic message. This deseverd to be the most famous war game ever done.
I remember the furore about this game 'glorifying war' but as soon as you saw the 'missing in action' list and those little, white crosses started to litter the hill, with this music in the background...man, War Ain't So Much Fun after all. These days I can lose whole platoons of fellow soldiers in glorious 3D and feel not a single damn thing for any of them. I don't play new games much any more.
i loved that melody so much that ....since i could not somehow record it ....i just remade it in a music program soundclub so i could listen when i want ....

Well, the state and media can't stand to have people being against war...
Doubly ironic that these same publications were far guiltier of fetishising the poppy and glorifying war. Even more so nowadays.
British tabloids - what do you expect? The tabloids also blame gaming for knife crimes and shootings. How they figure that out I'll never know. I mean, I grew up playing Paperboy and Chuckie Egg but never once stole eggs or threw a newspaper at someone's window.
I feel like we should do a quick poll of people who played cannon fodder. Are you pro or anti war, and did this game influence this?
Lyrics to "Narcissus" (© Jon Hare 1984)
I touched your hand and felt your softness
And in your eyes your light shone gently in the darkness
But did I really see you clearly?
The golden rapture that I knew when you were near me
I need you there but now you're gone away
Didn't know that you could mean so much to me
Didn't know that you could be so one with me
But looking back I see what I was meant to see
I gazed at my reflection in your eyes
And as you left I felt your shadow
It wouldn't leave me saying "See you in tomorrow"
It whispered "We could last forever...
wrapped in the bliss of crying silently together"
And when the world is dark my mind is filled with you
Didn't know that you could mean so much to me
Didn't know that you could be so one with me
But looking back I see what I was meant to see
I gazed at my reflection in your eyes
just hearing the first few seconds sends chills down my spine (again) and makes a tear in the left eye swell up (again).
First time I heard this I was in grade 1!

It is one of those very few games that still have the perfect graphics and the pinnacle of playability that you can always play it.

still good
