Below is a link to a compressed file containing the installer program for the game, its help file, and a few sample saved games - just run the Setup.Exe once uncompressed. |

This version is based on one started for two players at Tulane in 1980 in Pascal on a VAX using a VT100, extended at MIT in 1989 for one and no players, using UNIX and the curses library in C, and most recently, using C++ for color bitmap rendering and mouse input control. |
Currently this project is under development so the skill level settings accessed by the menus have little effect.
