Peppered

I mean I guess it works mechanically but i"m still a bit nauseous from that penguin game.

[h1]Simple and elegant, a fantastic proof-of-concept[/h1] Peppered displays a rarely-seen genre: A tile-based RTS (which isn't a TD). It also has a few mechanics that are quite novel: each tile has a varying amount of ammunition that your units must take time to gather, and your campfire's AOE healing effect can make a huge difference if utilized correctly, but you'll need to leave it to gather more ammunition. Is it flawless? Of course not. The overlapping displays can make issuing orders or checking ammo counts at a glance quite difficult. But I'd love to see the PvP tactics that this game would result in. I imagine fierce hit-and-run sessions where each player tries to extinguish the opposing campfire without losing units, and even that wouldn't guarantee victory. That said... It is very short. I was completely done with it in under half an hour. So spend only what you feel that's worth. With that caveat - recommended.

Not worth $3. Worth only the smallest possible price assuming you're really desperate for a strategy game to play for like 30 mins.
