xBill has been painstakingly designed and
researched in order to make it as easy to use
for the whole family as it is for little Sally.
Years - nay - days of beta testing and
consulting with the cheapest of human interface
designers have resulted in a game that is easy
to use, yet nothing at all like a Macintosh.
Whack the Bills (click)
Restart the computer (click)
Pick up stolen OSes & return (drag) them
to their respective computers
Drag the bucket to extinguish sparks
Scoring is based on total uptime, with
bonuses for killing Bills.
As for the rest, you can probably figure
it out. We did, so it can't be too hard.
The Story
Yet again, the fate of the world rests
in your hands! An evil computer hacker,
known only by his handle 'Bill', has
created the ultimate computer virus. A
virus so powerful that it has the power
to transmute an ordinary computer into
a toaster oven. (oooh!) 'Bill' has
cloned himself into a billion-jillion
micro-Bills. Their sole purpose is to
deliver the nefarious virus, which has
been cleverly diguised as a popular
operating system.
As System Administrator/Exterminator,
your job is to keep Bill from succeeding
at his task.
