Post news Report RSS Hedgewars 0.9.19 Released!

This is the funniest and most addictive game you'll ever play - hilarious fun that you can enjoy anywhere, anytime. Hedgewars is a turn based strategy game but the real buzz is from watching the devastation caused by those pesky hedgehogs with those fantastic weapons - sneaky little blighters with a bad attitude! Each player controls a team of several hedgehogs. During the course of the game, players take turns with one of their hedgehogs. They then use whatever tools and weapons are available

Frozen hog! Cool New WeaponsDon't wait for hell to freeze over, freeze it yourself with the all-new, amazing Freezer!Freeze your enemies, make ice-bridges over water or just create a slippery path of death!(*The dev team will not be held responsible for any injury and/or death you may sustain while walking on ice)We've improved your existing arsenal, too! The 'size' of cleaver has been reduced, so now it's more likely to cut into hogs instead of imbedding itself infuriatingly into the ground. The Flying Saucer has also seen some interesting changes... Flying Saucer Hedgehog Death comes from above below!It's time to take your amphibious assault to the next level. While using the Flying Saucer, it's now possible to launch projectiles from underwater! Also, instead of just dropping bombs on your enemies you can aim them, too! Wow! Cyborg Improved AI

Think you can hide in a hidey hog hole? The newly improved AI will use drill-rockets to dig you out!
