The game basically takes place during the 1950s and it is set during the time when the Berlin Airlift is being used to transport troops and supplies to Berlin from the USA. If you are fond of PC games based on history and real life military campaigns, then you will love to play Command & Conquer Red Alert. The game mainly focuses on realism and is thus not recommended for those who have problems with their sight and hearing. There is also a coop mode where you could work together as a group to take out the enemy base. You could also choose to play against other players from anywhere in the world for either a versus battle or a capture the flag scenario. In this competitive multiplayer mode, you could choose your army from one of three different factions - the armies of the US, the CIS or the USSR.

I believe it was the very first Real Time Strategy game to implement an online multiplayer mode. It featured a whole new cast of characters, different battle maps and various modes of play (adders, sectors, etc. This version of Command & Conquer features the very popular Command & Conquer series, which had been developed by Cryptic Studios and released in 1994. It is available for all users with the current operating system Windows 95 and before. Command & Conquer Red Alert was a good, fun game originally only available for Windows, which now belongs in the category of PC games with subgenre Strategy (more precisely Real Time Strategy).
