Harvester / Brainstorm

Harvester / Brainstorm is a combination of two puzzle games for the VIC-20.

Harvester: A 1 - 4 player game where players attempt to gather all tokens on a 16 x 22 grid using 4 movable craft. Players choose which craft, and which of 8 directions, to move. The craft will move in that direction until it reaches the edge of the grid gathering all tokens along the way. If the player makes a move that does not align with tokens, the game is over. That player will lose their points for the round, while the other 3 players will hold onto their points for the next round.

Brainstorm: The Psions are friendly enough to Terrans, but their telepathic emissions are dangerous to the human brain. So, humans must never be in the vicinity of a greater number of Psions. The goal is to transport 3 Terrans and 3 Psions across a river using a single raft. If there are ever more Psions than Terrans on the side of the river, then it's game over. All Terrans can row the boat, but only one of the Psions is strong enough. The boat can only hold 1 Psion and 1 Terran at a time. The goal is to get all 6 across the river without a deadly brainstorm.
