Synopsis

Two players face off, each controlling a weapon on one side of the screen (one player on the right and the other on the left). Each in turn, players can fire a projectile over the mounts that separate them while trying to hit the opposing weapon. When aiming, they must take into account several factors such as the angle of fire, the amount of powder used to charge their weapon and the strength and direction of the wind. The positions of trees, mounts and player weapons are randomly generated for each level. The game lays the foundation for a new subgenre of turn-based strategy games, the artillery game, which would later be popularized by the Worms series.
