KsirK is a computerized version of a well known strategy board game: Risk !
KsirK is a game for KDE released under the GPL. In the current version, KsirK is a usable multi-player mono-machine game with a basic AI. Planned future versions will be really network-enabled multi-playered with a better AI and a lot more enhancements (see Status for details).
The goal of the game is simply to conquer the World... It is done by attacking your neighbors with your armies.
At the beginning of the game, countries are distributed to all the players. Each country contain one army (represented by an infantryman) at this moment. Each player has some armies to distribute to his countries. Note that five armies are represented by a cavalryman and 10 by a cannon.
On each turn, each player can attack his neighbours, eventually conquering one or more countries. At the end of each turn, some bonus armies are distributed to the players in function of the number of countries they own.
The winner is the player that conquered all the world !!
!!! WARNING !!!
To compile KsirK1.3beta2, you have to patch a file in the libkdegames/kgame library.
A version of the patched file is given in the kgame-patch directory of the
distribution. If you don't know how to do that, maybe should you wait for a corrected kdegames package or for binary distributions of KsirK.
