Sahara Safari

Sahara Safari is a 1-player strategy game for the TRS-80.

The object of Sahara Safari is to ride a camel 200 miles across the desert, while being chased by a tribe of hungry Kulanian pygmy cannibals. Each turn, the player can travel fast or slow. Travelling fast uses up more of the camel's energy, while travelling slow will allow the pygmies to catch up. The player starts with a limited supply of water, and the player must stop to drink every 6 days. They can randomly find oases as they travel. Every few days, the camel must rest, and the camel can also become injured by sandstorms. If the camel is pushed too hard, it will die, and the game is over. The player can also get captured by fierce and wild Tartarians, and the player can try to escape, or may get held for ransom.
