Gorillas is a turn-based artillery game, which was written as an example game for MS-DOS QBasic. The game involves two gorillas on a city scape, taking in turns to throw bananas at each other, until one is wiped out.
Now owners of Panic’s handheld Playdate can play the game, thanks to a remake by theunfamiliarwolf.
Features
- Two player pass-and-play.
- Single player vs CPU.
- Use the crank to aim and hold A to shoot.
- The gorillas can move and jump across the city skyline.
- Fully destructible terrain.
