About the Game

The Great Emu War is a fun, frantic couch-competitive experience. The game pits two species, humans and emus, against each other in an asymmetric struggle for dominance. Rally a horde of emus to your banner and trample the humans' crops, or climb into your battle truck and prepare to hunt some emus.

This game is a multiplayer experience that requires 2-4 players and an equal number of game controllers.

The Great Emu War is a student project created by Suspicious Box, a team of students at the University of Central Florida's FIEA program.
