Oh my gosh, Mindsports have proper Warri with a wooden board & seeds. I just played. It feels so great picking up & dropping them. I'm absolutely rubbish at it, but the rules are easy to pick up. Just an amazing game.

Ground Zero 🏙️ 🪖 (1984)

One of the few games my father had on his Macintosh. Simple but fun concept! With very neat black and white graphics.

I enjoy playing it again in emulation 😀

The highest difficulty level is insane! 🤯

What's more, the number of missiles a base can fire is limited.

It's lucky I got this far 🙃
