Operation: Bring Them Home

Operation: Bring Them Home pixel art battlefield and rescue helicopter

Bring your people home. An original retro military arcade adventure inspired by the Commodore 64 classic Beach Head II, spanning five missions: rescue prisoners, hold the line, survive a convoy breakout, duel the Commandant, and fly an attack helicopter through enemy territory. Synthesized radio voices and five SID-inspired music tracks give every chapter its own character.

Five missions. One way home.

  1. The Rescue: escort prisoners one at a time, keep the route clear, and order them into cover. Watch your friendly fire.
  2. Hold the Line: protect your outpost and medics against infantry and armored transports.
  3. Breakout: defend your convoy against motorcycle packs, jeeps, and armor.
  4. The Confrontation: outwit the Commandant in a best-of-three knife duel.
  5. Extraction: fly the helicopter through a river combat zone with cannons, rockets, and repair pickups.

How to play

Each chapter opens with its own briefing and controls. Use keyboard and mouse on desktop, or the aiming slider and action buttons on touchscreen. Turn your phone to landscape for the full battlefield and side controls. For the best mobile experience, open the game in its own tab.
