Freeware
Freeware video or computer strategy or wargames, where the player sees the "big picture": controls many units at once, on a large map, and must coordinate them in order to win, usually by destroying the similar forces of one or more opponents, or by conquering an area of the game map. Often the map must be explored, resources must be controlled, new units must be produced, and new unit types and abilities discovered, acquired, or researched.
