What is FratWars?
It's a real-time strategy game that puts you in charge of a fraternity with the sole purpose of becoming the best on campus. It is designed to be instantly usable and intuitive to gamers that are fans of the RTS genre.
FratWars originates from the software engineering course at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Therefore, the current FratWars environment is that of the vast UIUC campus. Support for other campuses is designed into the game. However, since none of the UIUC developers have detailed knowledge of other campuses we must reach out to others that wish to have their university represented.
Why do I want to play FratWars?
You want to play FratWars because you've become jaded to the myriad military-style RTS games that revolve around sending swarms of tanks or other military vehicles to annihilate your opponents. Let's face it, that's been done to death. FratWars provides a refreshing alternative in that you can win by out-partying your rival fraternities.
