Civil war by ninjalan

made by ninjalan for LD26 (JAM)

Civil war is a multiplayer minimalistic war game. Try to capture enemy squares! Clicking on an opponent square will fill any and all squares that have allied squares in the same row or column.

The premise looks interesting, would've liked to play this with someone else though, can't really tell how in depth the gameplay is solo.

Looks fun but as there is no AI and I don't have anyone near to play with I can't really test the game.

Pretty nice idea for a minimalist game! It appear that after playing your game I have achieved the ability to unzip archives, for I AM THE WINRAR lol.

Mmh I'm ot sure it can work without a way to prevent undo move from the opponent. It would have been more fun to test with a small AI to to play with. Nice sounds :)

I didn't try playing this against someone, but it seems like a pretty fun little digital boardgame. The messages when clicking the wrong square are funny.
