| Summary : An ASCII-based clone of an action-strategy game called The Hord
|
Description :
The Horde is an hybrid action-strategy game developed by Toys For Bob in 1994.
In The Horde you play as Chauncey, a serving lad who saves his monarch, King of
Franzpowanki, from choking on his meal. The King rewards you with his magical
monster slayer sword, the Grimthwacker, and a plot of land known as the Shimto
Plains. Unfortunately, these particular lands are constantly under attack by
“The Horde”, a group of destructive and hungry monsters, called hordlings, who
are bent on eating everything in the province.
This remake of The Horde is a simpler ASCII-based turn-based version written in
C and using the curses library in which the goal is to reach $2000 in gold to
pay the taxes while keeping The Horde away from the cattle with the help of the
Grimthwacker. At each season’s beginning you receive $10 in gold per cow still
alive but it is possible to buy additional cows for $20 the head. Also, to slow
down the hungry wave of hordlings, is possible to build, and then improve,
fences for $1 apiece. Some of the more expensive fences can even kill
hordlings.
