The main focus of Army Men Mobile Ops is to complete missions by destroying objects, killing enemies, collecting intel from enemy areas, and more. Each type of soldier provides different stats and weaponry. The arena of combat is decently unique. Being soldiers, these hardened plastic paratroopers fight it out on a kitchen table, playroom, hallway, and bathroom, each battlefield littered with household debris that makes for useful cover, or just as obstacles. Crates are at many areas around those battlefields destroy one, and your men may find ammo, medical kits, and others. Crates also can be kicked open to save ammo.

Players choose one of the three original monsters to rescue. The player then uses the characters in the part of the world where the rescue is held. They work as a collective to break buildings, eat people, and destroy cars and this creates competition among players. When a player (literally) unlocks George, Lizzie, or Ralph, then they become playable characters. Once all the monsters are rescued, aliens begin to invade the earth, leaving the monsters the only ones who can save the planet they just helped partially destroy. After fending off the invasion on Earth, the monsters rescue Myukus (a cyclops-like alien) from Area 51 before chasing the aliens through space, destroying the aliens' bases throughout the Solar System and eventually rampaging through their homeworld.

The game is military-themed and based on shooting action but with a strategy game-style control system. The player directs troops through numerous missions, battling enemy infantry, vehicles and installations. Cannon Fodder has a darkly humorous tone which commentators variously praised and condemned. Its creators intended it to convey an anti-war message, which some reviewers recognised, but the Daily Star and a number of public figures derided the game. In other respects, reviewers highly praised the game, which widely achieved scores of over 90% in Amiga magazines. Amiga Action awarded it an unprecedented score, calling it the best game of the year.
