About the game

War of the Worlds is a video game released in 2005 for J2ME. VG90 lists it as a reference record so the title stays discoverable alongside the thousands of other releases that defined the modern retro-revival period.

The years around 2005 belonged to the modern retro-revival period, when digital storefronts and emulation were keeping the classics — and their descendants — alive. VG90 groups titles like this one by era and platform so those connections are easy to trace.

Why it matters

The value of a record like this is context: the modern retro-revival period produced far more games than the handful everyone remembers, and digital storefronts and emulation were keeping the classics — and their descendants — alive. An archive earns its keep by preserving the long tail, not just the hits.
