Stoned

STONED - a stone-stacking duel for the Amiga 500

Two fields, falling columns of stones, one winner. Line up 3 or more equal symbols in any direction - horizontally, vertically or diagonally - and the stones shatter. Chain your matches and the rubble drops onto your opponent's field. Inspired by "Dossun Ganseki Battle".

Every symbol does something:

- Attack - hurts your opponent

- Heal - restores your HP

- Max HP up - raises your maximum HP

- 5 in a line - fills your special stock. Press UP to unleash a special attack

- Pretracker soundtrack by Virgill
