This is a port of Wargus/War1gus, the Stratagus strategy game engine to the PS Vita.
War1gus is a re-implementation of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans that allows you to play Warcraft with the Stratagus engine. The game uses graphics and sounds from the original Warcraft, but improves the gameplay mechanisms with many modern conveniences that the Stratagus engine allows, such as modern mouse controls, named groups, larger group selection, more player factions in multiplayer games, a map editor, and multiple towns.
Wargus is a Warcraft 2 Mod that allows you to play Warcraft 2 with the Stratagus engine. The game looks and sounds almost exactly like Warcraft 2. The gameplay is very close to Warcraft 2's gameplay, with slight enhancements towards Starcraft and other more modern RTS games.
