Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Western Front 1914 is a Run-and-Gun action game hosted by Miniclip.com - the same guys behind the online Flash series, the Commando trilogy, which it shares similarities from gameplay to animation.Set in 1914 - albeit a heavily-fictionalized equivalent, you are an elite commando sent behind the German border to uncover their top-secret lab. You then discover they're developing their own armies of giant robots and must destroy their war machines, infiltrating their various facilities mass-producing mechs before facing their ultimate weapon, a robot that looks like Megatron from the live-action Transformers movies.… have we mentioned this game is supposedly set in 1914? Well, yeah, but the robots and lasers are there, just because.

Anachronism Stew: Of the Rule of Cool variety. The game is pretty much 1914 In Name Only. The presence of gigantic killer robots should more or less be an indication that the game isn't aiming for historical accuracy. At all. The Final Boss of the game is notably modeled after Megatron from Transformers, specifically the live-action Michael Bay films. There's also laser cannons, AK-47 rifles (which debuts in 1949 Russia) and homing missiles which are too advanced for it's time. On a lesser note, the enemy forces appears to be based off Nazi Germany, from their uniforms bearing the iconic red swastika armbands to flags displaying Nazi stars. Even though the actual Nazi doesn't come into existance until the second World War, in 1945.

All Germans Are Nazis: The enemy forces are Germans and depicted in stereotypical Nazi gear, despite being set in 1914, two decades before the actual rise of Nazi.
