## Description
_Bannercatch_ is an educational action game for two players. The game is a
variation of capture the flag; two human players compete against Max and his
team of robots. To win the game, the players need to work as a team to travel
to Max’s zone of the playfield, capture the flag, and bring it back safely
back before Max is able to capture the players flag. Each time the players
successfully capture one of Max’s flags, part of his face will be revealed;
the goal is to try to see all of Max’s face.
To help with this quest, the game includes maps which provide an overview of
the entire playing field (each player will only be able to see a small portion
on the screen at a time). Also, hints about his flags whereabouts can be
gained by tricking Max into telling about it. This is done by positioning a
player over one of the robot sensors and attempting to communicate with Max
disguised as one of his robots. Since Max talks to his robots in binary, the
player will need to translate a series of binary numbers to convince Max to
reveal clues about his flags location. At any time during the game the player
can freeze the action; this allows for checking the maps or taking a rest.
The game features five different levels of difficulty along with a
demonstration mode. Points are earned for successfully capturing the flag,
tagging a robot which is carrying your flag, and winning the game.
