Crazy Cows

Wild Crazy Cows... This game is a completely unique, unthinkable phenomenon, which is very, very difficult to describe in words. She is an example of the fact that the triumph of the absurd and total contempt for the "theory of marketing" and "established stereotypes" are quite real. If someone suggested the idea to create one today (or even ever) - they would have laughed at him and said that it was "no one will buy." By the way, apparently, nobody really bought it, so no one remembers it (and never remembered). But there were people who did this, and that is.

So there is a field. A very, very large field. There are two types of cows on this field: gray and brown. These two types of cows hate each other with fierce hatred, therefore they fight among themselves over the field zones, and this is all presented in the form of an ironic, but very, very complex turn-based tactical strategy in the style of X-Com. Rave? No, the reality. Both teams always have the same cows, only in a different color (that is, no one has any advantages). The task of each team is to completely destroy all its opponents.

There are weapons on the field (usually two types - katanas and shotguns, but there may be other options) that cows must collect in order to fight each other. There are also different types of landscape (within the same field) and the “fog of war”, which complicates the movement (you need to look for special “gray areas” that will allow you to examine some territory around, there is also the concept of “line of sight” - standing in one zone , you can make visible a whole "strip" of them). The game, as already mentioned, is turn-based, therefore it consists of movements and battles.

To move, use movement points (given at the start of the battle). During the movement, you can raise the weapon (it is done automatically when you enter the cage with it). Depending on the weapon taken, the cow becomes either a ninja (with a katana) or punk (with a shotgun). The battle with the enemy is possible either when two cows are on adjacent cages (if at least one of them has a katana), or if any range of adjacent cages is completely open for review (if at least one cow has a shotgun).

The graphics in the game are more than decent, the cows are two-dimensional sprites, but large and well-drawn (albeit somewhat funny, which does not really correspond to the serious mood of the game), the drawing of the field is generally wonderful, with great detail. The verdict is really great, but probably not everyone will understand. However, all fans of tactical strategies should at least take a look.
