WipeOut!

A strategy game for 2-6 players
Programmed by Nick Humphries, 12th July 2000

The Rules

  • Players take turns adding atoms to the grid.
  • Players can only add atoms to empty squares or squares of their own colour.
  • When a square breaks its limit, it explodes, sending its atoms to neighbouring squares.
  • Corners explode on the 2nd atom, edges on the 3rd, others on the 4th.
  • When a player's square explodes onto another player's square, he gets control of that square.
  • If a player has no squares left, he's out of the game.
  • The winner is the player who's wiped out all the other players.
