Army Men is the first game of the Army Men series. It was released for PC but was ported to Game Boy Color.

At the beginning of this game Sarge is tasked with a simple recon mission on the front line - locate some documents. At the end of this game, Sarge finds a strange portal that leads to the next dimension and the next game. Regarded as a classic by fans, this is one of the few games to actually display Sarge and his squad as merely pawns in a bigger battle. Two features that make this game almost unique in the series are its story telling (Black-White spoof of old-time war-time news reels) and the fact that it often depicts a front line or other fighting that doesn't involve the main characters.
