About the Game

In the mist of the war, enemy troops patrol the land with flamethrowers and weapons. You are a teacher responsible for leading your group of students to safety. Inspired by the student formations in the Battle of Okinawa during World War 2.

In each level you must:

  • Reach the safe point with your surviving units.

  • Bring at least food for every alive unit.

Food can be found in bushes scattered through out the environment Enemies patrol the area and their flamethrowers will ignite the terrain.

  • Walking through fire causes damage.

  • You can hide inside bushes to avoid enemy sight lines.

Use terrain and stealth to slip past patrols and reach your objective. Your group share one inventory

  • Any student can collect resources that benefit the entire team.

The Grenade (Last Resort)

  • Every student — and you— each carry one grenade.

  • Using the grenade will eliminate the unit using it, destroying nearby enemies and creating a chance for the others to escape.

There is no turning back, use it only when there is no other way forward. If the teacher dies or all units are captured, the game is over.
