- CAPTURE THE FLAG is one of the most reviewed shareware games by major
- media! Very few, if any, shareware games have received rewiews by two
- of the three major computer (non-shareware) game magazines and the
- Associated Press (AP)! See AWARDS.DOC for unabridged reviews.
- 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 Adlib and Sound
- Blaster) of battle. All of this action takes place on a huge, beautifully
- detailed playing field in gorgeous HIGH resolution VGA (640 by 480 in 16
- colors), with synchronized sound and great animation.
- Took 2,600+ hours to create this commercial quality, landmark game.
- Extensive play testing has resulted in comprehensive help popups that make
- this new kind of strategy game remarkably quick to learn. Can play
- against the computer (strong artificial intelligence) or a friend.
- All the documentation is available from within Capture the Flag's
- pulldown menus. REQUIREMENTS: 640k, a 286 or above, and VGA.

- COMPUTER GAMING WORLD magazine (April 1993, pg. 95) "... Based on the
- traditional outdoor diversion by the same name, ... By nature of its
- design, this is an excellent game for children or adults who normally
- bypass computer wargames due to their predominantly complex and violent
- nature. CAPTURE THE FLAG is very easy to play ... The playing field
- itself is comprised of several well designed and varied terrain types,
- ranging from flat grasslands to forests, and even rocky badlands. In
- addition, a terrain editor is provided for constructing one's own
- battlegrounds. Graphics are of very good quality ... The icon-driven
- interface is simple and very intuitive, ... Overall, it is evident that
- care was taken in the development of this product, its presentation
- being of commercial quality.".

- COMPUTER GAMES STRATEGY PLUS magazine (December 1992, p. 32-33)
- "...In other words this is a typical tactical level wargame. What's
- atypical about it is its potential appeal to non-wargamers. Not only
- is the subject matter essentially nonviolent, but also the interface
- is incredibly easy to use and there is no rule book - all pertinent
- information is provided on a tutorial and pop-up help menus ...
- Inputting orders is ridiculously easy... Capture the Flag offers a
- surprising number of tactical options which are, perhaps, more akin
- to football (aka soccer) than war. My own preferred strategy is to
- leave my best players in defense ..."
