## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Curse of War is a small terminal-first real-time strategy game that treats the command line as the game surface rather than just a launcher. Its official site describes it as a fast-paced action strategy game for Linux, originally implemented with ncurses, with an SDL graphical version added later.

### Projektgeschichte

The public GitHub repository was created in 2013 and the official project page presents the game as an RTS influenced by Globulation2, Liquidwar, Settlers, StarCraft, tty games, and roguelikes. Version tags show a compact release line through the 1.x series, including v1.2.0, the release line associated by the project page with the SDL graphical version.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

Its adoption profile is typical of niche terminal games: it is interesting enough to be packaged by Unix-like distributions, but it remains a focused package rather than a broad gaming platform. The official page emphasizes quick command-line starts, local play, and multiplayer server/client commands.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Users run `curseofwar` directly, tune maps and game conditions with command-line options, and can start a multiplayer server or client from the terminal. The appeal is immediate play from a package-manager install without a large asset pipeline or desktop launcher.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

For package-history work, Curse of War is a useful example of the long tail of ncurses games: small upstream, simple executable, GPL licensing, and enough Unix packaging interest to survive as a formula even though the project is not a mainstream game.

### Zeitleiste

- 2013: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2013: Early 1.x release tags appear in the upstream repository.
- 2014: v1.3.0 tagged in the upstream release history.

### Related projects

- The project page names Globulation2, Liquidwar, Settlers, StarCraft, tty games, and roguelikes as influences.
