ballerburg(6) A castle combat game

SYNOPSIS

ballerburg

DESCRIPTION

Ballerburg is a castle combat game. Two players (which can be human or computer-controlled) try to destroy the opponent's castle with their cannons.

There are two ways to win the game: Either by directly hitting the opponents king with a cannonball, or by destroying enough of the opponents commodities so that the king capitulates automatically.

COMMANDS

Beside the intuitive control of the game with the mouse cursor, there are a couple of shortcut keys, too:
ESC

f
toggle fullscreen mode
t

q
