Mutton
Mutton is a deductive game for two players. One player plays
as
wolves who disguise themselves as sheep in order to eat as many sheep
as they can. The other player is the farmer who tries to kill
the
wolves before they eat too many sheep.
The full rules are available here
Only one round is played in this version. The first player
sets
up the board and decides how many dead sheep the wolf player needs to
cause in order to win. The second player then chooses to play
as
the wolf or the farmer. The farmer player wins if he can
shoot
all 4 wolves before the targeted number of sheep are killed (either by
being eaten by the wolf or shot by the farmer.) The wolf player wins if
the targeted number of sheep are killed before all 4 wolves are killed.
If you prefer to turn off the score sheet and keep score yourself, printable
score sheets are available at Cameron Brownes site.
Robots:
Dumbbot currently
chooses randomly from valid moves and is fairly easy to beat.
