-find them, you can place probes that look in all eight compass directions and
-tell you how many lifeboats they see. If you drop a probe directly on a
-lifeboat it will be revealed immediately. Your objective: find the lifeboats

+<para>This is a UNIX-hosted, curses-based clone of the nifty little Macintosh
freeware game Galaxis. It doesn't have the super-simple, point-and-click
interface of the original, but compensates by automating away some of the
-game's simpler deductions.

-To run it, simply type `galaxis'. The game screen includes a description
-of all commands, including `?' for detailed help.
