Story



Well, after years of being milked, you would also get a little crazy don't you? A revolution started in the farms!! Cows no longer obey its owners!! They go by their own, so they took arms and fought the oppressor. But, after defeating the farmers, cows don't stop. They want more. They want more farms, more food, and more space. Cows are divided in two groups, the brown cows and gray cows. There can be only one.
Taking all the weapons they find, cows will fight each other until one army loses all its cows.

Gameplay



CRAZY COWS is a cool game that combines action with fun, and requires strategic movements.
It is a turn-based game. This means that one army moves first, and then the other army can move its cows. Each cow has a limited 'time' in each turn. You must use your time wisely, because your enemy will!
While moving, you may find some weapons on the floor. There are 6 types of weapons: shotgun, bazooka, katana sword, mines, kooathilie stick and scuba gear. When your cow picks up one of these, it will equip the weapon immediately, dropping to the ground the weapon it had equipped.
The scuba cow has one ability: it can breathe underwater. The rest of cows will drown. The mine cow can let mines on the floor, and it is the only one who can see them and pick them up. Any other cow will explode when near a mine.
The terrain also has an important role: if you go through grass, you'll go faster than going through the forest! Also, going through mountains or desert will decrease your health.
Another important item are the farms. When you control a farm, it will produce a cow randomly. So, the more farms you control, the best! Cows without weapons can conquer enemy's farms by clicking on them.
And remember: no cow can remain alive!
