Free computer game where two teams (of three) throw stones (or bombs) over a hill to try and kill each other.
Multiplayer.
Incredibly simple but irritating music.
Four letter I think.
Everyone chooses the trajectory of the throw and when all ready, stones are thrown simultaneously.

It's bugging the heck out of me - and might fill the time between now and Friday.

Used to be a game on the old Windows 3.1 called gorillas, lobbing bananas at each other standing on skyscrapers I believe.

I don't remember bananas. Very simple game. You had a few seconds to get into a position and aim your bomb. Then the system locked down and all the bombs were thrown at once. Three players each side. Cowards hid near the back (far left and far right) to be out of range but also found it hard to reach the opposition over the hill. Different sorts of bombs - rolling, explode in the air etc). You couldn't choose your team - just whether you were red or blue (I think) and the game allocated players to you and against you. Winner was the team who killed the three opponents.

Sorry I can't be more clear - name is on the tip of my tongue.

Is it wrong I just watched that whole game?

Strangely hypnotic:mad::mad:

I wouldn't be able to play it now. Far too glitchy and lost track of what was going up and what was going down. Those were the days. The days of putting cassettes into computers and waiting 20 mins for a game to load only to fail and have to re load it:rant::rant::rant:

There was another good free game I came across a couple of years ago, where you work in teams of four to complete puzzles and tasks for as long as possible. For every question you get right, you teammate's health increases, and if you get a challenge wrong, they lose life. I'll post a link if anyone's interested.
