Iron Brigade, formerly titled Trenched, is a 2011 video game, developed by Double Fine Productions, published by Microsoft Studios. Players control a “trench”, a giant war machine that can move about the battlefield as needed. The player’s goal is to protect their base, the ship U.S.S. McKinley from increasingly difficult waves of Monovisions. Though a player’s trench may be disabled by enemy attacks, the player can spend time to repair the machine and continue on; the game is only lost when the base is overrun by the Monovisions (although there are exceptions with some levels, where the objective is to destroy a given object rather than defend one). During the attacks, the player has the ability to ground its trench at a fixed spot, or move about the field to fire on foes.
