XMille
Description
XMille is a re-implementation of the Parker Brothers Mille Bornes card game for the X Window System. The objective is to be the first to reach a distance of 700 kilometers, which can be optionally extended to 1000 kilometers by the first player to reach it. Each turn consists of pulling a single card from the deck, followed by either playing or discarding a card. Distance is accrued by playing cards corresponding to the distance to travel. Other cards consist of hazards/conditions (e.g. flat tire), counters to the hazards (e.g. spare tire), and rare protections against hazards (e.g. puncture proof). The game starts with the ‘Stop’ condition active, and a ‘Go’ card must be played before you may move.
This particular version of the game is played solo against the computer.
