If not original then definitely very different from most games around. There's a map. There are two bases - yours and your enemy's. Both bases produce "soldiers" represented by numbers. Produce them exactly like in Lemmings, but the infinite number. Lemmings march ahead, unless they meet obstacle - then they turn 90 degrees clockwise. There are two types of obstacles - walls and movable roadblocks which can be placed and removed like stones in Go. Goal is to guide your army towards enemy and destroy his troops. Value of soldier increases each time he passes PI symbol. When two units meet - the one with higher value wins, or both annihilate - if they share the number.

Despite dull look it's a fresh mix of Lemmings, ASCII roguelikes and RTS. Not to miss.

Actually sounds quite fun. And you are right it looks dull. Looks like that old game from late 8os where you controlled an H. I think it was actually called H.

I may be somehow perverted, but I do like it's outlook :) I've always been a fan of ASCII D&D games, and the graphics here really remind me of those :)

Despite of the simple ASCII graphics this game is amanzingly good fun to play. First world is easy to beat, but when it comes to the following worlds you will need some strategic thinking to succeed and destroy your enemy.

There are lots of hightech games that are not that good, so this is another proof that the old phrase is right: Don't judge a book by its cover!
