Germ Warfare

Germ Warfare is a 1-player strategy game for the TRS-80.

A population of germs fill a matrix, where the population of each location doubles every turn, but if it becomes too crowded, it dies. Thus, the germ population is constantly changing every generation. At the beginning of the game, the player deploys 28 antibodies to combat the germ population, and can apply 5 more each turn until the game ends on turn 10. The goal is to minimize the germ population at the end of 10 rounds.
