* ''[[Iron Storm]]'' sort of counts, being a dystopian [[Alternate History]] [[FPS]] in which history diverged from ours during the late stages of WWI and the beginning of the Russian Civil War. It's the 1960s, [[Forever War|the Great War has been dragging on for half a century]], Earth is a [[Crapsack World]] and [[War for Fun and Profit|war has become an accepted way of everyday life]]. Oh, and the game's [[Big Bad]] is none other than a [[Captain Ersatz]] of the infamous baron Roman [[Ungern-Sternberg]].
* The events of the [[Adventure Game]] ''[[The Last Express]]'' take place on the threshold of the war, are heavily undertoned by and, arguably and implicitly, cause it.
* ''[[Victoria: anAn Empire Under The Sun]]'' features World War One technology in its later stages and the possibility to spark the war, [[Alternate History|create an alternate version of it... or avert it altogether]].
* Many pan-historical [[RTS]] games, like ''[[Rise of Nations]]'' or the ''[[Empire Earth]]'' series, have a historical era based on WWI, complete with typical military units of the period.
* The ''[[Iron Grip]]'' series, true to its [[Schizo-Tech]] [[Punk Punk]] feel, borrows a lot of inspiration from this era as well. The games can be seen as a [[Low Fantasy]] [[Recycled in Space|retelling]] of some aspects of the war, coating the industrial war-torn grimness of the frontlines with a [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Steampunk]] and [[Diesel Punk]] aesthetic.
