Most-played KKND games
KKND: Krush, Kill 'n' Destroy Xtreme
DOSReal-Time Strategy
KKND: Krush, Kill 'n' Destroy Xtreme is a post-apocalyptic real-time strategy game developed by Beam Software and published by Melbourne House for DOS. It places three factions—Survivors, Evolved mutants, and Series 9 machines—against one another in a devastated future where resources and territory are scarce. Players build bases, gather resources, produce military units, and complete objectives across campaign missions or skirmishes. Xtreme expands the original KKND formula with additional missions and a broader selection of battles. Its combination of base construction, vehicle warfare, and asymmetric factions earned it a modest following among DOS strategy players, although its interface and pathfinding can feel dated today.
KKnD 2: Krossfire
DOSReal-Time Strategy
KKnD 2: Krossfire is a science-fiction real-time strategy game developed by Beam Software and published by Infogrames for DOS in 1998. Set in a devastated future, it follows three factions competing for control of the remaining habitable land: the human Survivors, the mutated Evolved, and the machine-based Series 9. The game combines base construction, resource management, unit production, and tactical combat across campaign missions and multiplayer battles. Its asymmetric factions give each side different units, buildings, and battlefield priorities. Krossfire received attention for expanding the original KKnD with a third faction and a broader unit roster, although contemporary opinions also noted its demanding interface and sometimes uneven balance. It remains a distinctive late-1990s post-apocalyptic strategy title.
How is this list kept current?
How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
