Operation: Desert Storm is a top-down tank shooter for the Macintosh. It is the first commercial game released by Bungie[3] and the first game released after their incorporation. It followed the freeware title Gnop!, published by Bungie co-founder Alex Seropian under the Bungie name prior to incorporation. Operation: Desert Storm sold about 2,500 copies[4][5] and was based on the events of the ongoing Gulf War.
The game features twenty levels, culminating in a mission set in Baghdad, Iraq with the final enemy being Saddam Hussein. It comes with a glossary of military terms and trivia which was needed in order to validate the copy-protection in the game, and authentic maps of the Kuwaiti Theater of Operations.
