'''[[Cheat Commandos]] Tactics''' is an [[Unfinished Toons|abandoned]] [[Videlectrix]] game. It is likely a [[Turn-based tactics|turn-based tactics]] genre game, similar to ''[[Advance Wars]]'' (given that some graphics had been "temporarily swiped" from that game): the player controls Cheat Commando units on a grid-based map, with occasional cutscenes advancing the story and breaking up gameplay.

A video of rudimentary gameplay, featuring a cutscene demo, was posted to [[@StrongBadActual|Twitter]] on <span style="display:none"></span>[[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2018|November 6, 2018]]. No further information about this game has been shared; it is unknown when the game was started or abandoned.

'''Cast:''' [[Fightgar]], [[Gunhaver]], [[Silent Rip]]

'''Places:''' [[The Desert]]

The video does not show many elements of gameplay. It starts with a top-down view of a map with Fightgar on it. The map is mostly green, with some mountains and a vertical gray bridge in the center. The graphics are pixelated, and the music is from the opening of [[Cheat Commandos...O's]]. As the mouse cursor hovers over the map tiles, a gray box in the top-left corner shows what type of tile it is. There are three known types of tiles: "plain", "mountain", and "bridge". When the cursor hovers over the character, some statistics appear: HP (short for "Not Dead Points"), AP (short for "Awesomeness Points"), and level.

When the character is clicked, a list of options appears: Move, Attack, Status, Wait, Cancel. In the video, "Attack" is shown to be unclickable, presumably as there is nothing to attack. "Status" gives a more detailed list of statistics, including the character's speed and defense. The player can click "Back" to exit this screen. Clicking on "Move" causes the four tiles orthogonally adjacent (not diagonal) to Fightgar to glow blue, and the player may click one of those tiles to move there. The player can click "Cancel" to cancel this action. It is unknown exactly what the other options do.

''{Slow fade-in to the desert. Music from the commercial portion of the [[Cheat Commandos (toon)|Cheat Commandos]] toon plays. Gunhaver slides in from the left. The graphics are slightly pixelated, and the words are not spoken, but subtitled in a gray box below. A "NEXT" button is in the corner of the box, which the player can click to advance the conversation.}''

'''SECOND SILENT RIP:''' Wanna go get ramen?

'''SECOND GUNHAVER:''' I'm mostly down with that.
