DESCRIPTION

13       Have the mascots of your favorite free software battle  in  the  Wormux
14       arena  using  dynamite,  grenades,  baseball  bat and other weapons ...
15       Exterminate your opponent in a funny 2D toon-style scenery.
16
17       Each player (2 minimum, on the same PC) controls the team of his choice
18       (tux,  gnu, firefox, wilber,...) and must destroy his adversaries using
19       more or less casual weapons.
20
21       Although a minimum of strategy is required to be victorious, Wormux  is
22       pre-eminently  a "convivial mass murder" game where, turn by turn, each
23       team attempts to produce maximum damage to their opponents.
