CAPTURE THE FLAG from Carr Software
Created by Richard Carr
The major computer magazines have recently been decrying the lack of
Play by E-Mail (PBEM) computer games. PBEM games allow two people to
play each other over a modem, network, BBS, online service, or thur the
mail. For example, the introduction to Alan Emrich's column in the
September, 1994 Computer Gaming World magazine said:
"Give us e-mail or give us depth! Alan Emrich pleads with wargame
publishers to provide PBEM options for all phased movement games."
You might find a great pent up demand for PBEM games and we suggest that
you highlight Capture the Flag's new PBEM ability.
Also, please note that Capture the Flag (CTF) can now load/save to different
drives and directories. This allows CTF to be played from a CD-ROM without
first having to install CTF to a hard disk. Also makes playing CTF on a
network much easier.
You may use following descriptions or they may help you come up with your
own descriptions.
LONG DESCRIPTION:
****** ELECTRONIC ENTERTAINMENT October 1994, page 63 ******
"This wilderness version of hide-and-seek remains the MOST exquisite
shareware strategy game for the PC. What makes it so great? Maybe it's
the artful melding of high detail and ease of use. Maybe it's the
sensible rules and pleasant controls. Or maybe it's the lovely artwork.
This game is so intriguing that you won't want to stop playing."
ELECTRONIC ENTERTAINMENT October 1994, page 63.
Dash through verdant woodlands, jump over gushing streams, climb rail
fences and race through farm fields as you search for the opposing team's
flag in a desperate race to capture their flag before they capture yours.
Analyze your defensive team's skills, develop their tactics, then deploy
them in natural cover to intercept and capture the opposition raiders.
Choose between running, walking, crawling, or just a standing search
as lookout. Enjoy the suspense and sounds (supports Sound Blaster) of
combat. All of this action takes place on a huge, beautifully detailed
playing field in gorgeous HIGH resolution VGA (640 by 480), with
synchronized sound and great animation.
Extensive play testing has resulted in comprehensive help popups that make
this game remarkably quick to learn. Can play against the computer
(strong artificial intelligence) or a friend either on same computer or
over a modem/network.
All the documentation is available from within Capture the Flag's
pulldown menus. REQUIREMENTS: 640k, a 286 or above, and VGA.
