Introduction

SoundRTS is a real-time strategy audio game. I tried to put in an audio game the fun from Warcraft.

SoundRTS was into the SoundMUD project.

Features

realtime strategy game
game versus computer
multiplayer online game

Warnings

If you play with headphones (which is not necessary for this game), keep the sound volume to a minimum level and make frequent breaks.

Warcraft 2 and 3 by Blizzard were not recommended under the age of 13. SoundRTS being analog to these games (but less violent in my opinion, but let the parents decide), this game is probably not recommended to people under 13.
