A simulation of the traditional capture the flag game. Each side hides a flag inside their territory and tries to capture the other team's flag. A global map of the playing field shows all of your territory and any enemy territory that your players can see. The game zooms in on each of your players as you move them. Different types of terrain can slow characters down or reduce their visibility, such as rivers, trees, rocks, fences and fields. Characters have different attributes that determine how far they can run and see, and how well they can evade capture. The game is turn based, and a player's attributes determine whether an enemy player is captured when approached while in their territory. Captured players must sit out for a few turns. There are 200 scenarios, 40 maps, and 10 Capture the Flag variants in the full version. Capture the Flag v3.2 Shareware Episode (394k) Carr Software still sells the registered version of this game for $19.95 by download.
