Its goal is to provide a limited number of rules, and then watch some sort of "society" emerge. Trends develop as animals interact with the terrain and with each other. This program is an "Artificial Society" program. The rules are placed in the program (and are somewhat customizeable). You then observe what happens; you can also find information on the individual animals or watch specific trends such as "wealth distribution."

The square the arrow lands on becomes a permanent block for the rest of the game. No one can move over it, or fire an arrow over it. Every turn an amazon must move and fire an arrow, so every turn there is one less square available on the board. You can block in your opponent, or section off a good chunk of the board for yourself. You can set it to play AI vs AI or whatever you like. There are also Auto Finish and Force Move defaults.
