SEAL Team

SEAL Team, released in 1993 by Electronic Arts for MS-DOS, is a tactical military simulation that puts players in command of an elite squad of U.S. Navy SEALs during the Vietnam War. Combining first-person action with strategic planning, the game offers a realistic and immersive portrayal of special operations deep behind enemy lines.

Missions range from reconnaissance and sabotage to hostage rescues and ambushes, each requiring careful coordination, stealth, and precision. Players control a four-man team, issuing orders, managing gear, and engaging in real-time combat across dense jungles, river deltas, and enemy compounds. The game’s vector-based graphics provide a functional, tactical view of the battlefield, emphasizing realism over flashiness.

SEAL Team was praised for its authenticity, depth, and innovative blend of simulation and squad-based tactics. It stands out as one of the earliest attempts to portray modern special forces operations with seriousness and detail, making it a cult favorite among fans of military strategy and historical accuracy.
