C-evo

About

C-evo is a turn-based strategy game built by Steffen Gerlach and released in 1999. It plays out on a grid where players manage resources and plan moves over turns. The game focuses on base building and tactical combat with a straightforward interface and minimal text. Actions are executed in discrete steps with a focus on positioning and efficiency. The game's source code is in the public domain allowing players to modify or study it freely. While basic in design it offers a no-frills strategy experience that runs smoothly on older systems. Its long history and open access make it a curious pick for those into retro or lightweight strategy titles.
