About

Isolation is a two-player abstract board game written as a rulebook for GameMaster, an early-1990s networked board-game server for the Macintosh. It was contributed to Info-Mac in May 1992 by Rhys Hollow of the University of Western Australia and ships as a GameMaster rulebook rather than a stand-alone application.How to playIsolation is a simple two-player board game. It can be played head-to-head over an AppleTalk network on two Macs or hot-seat on a single Mac, but it always requires two human players, as no AI opponent is included in the rulebook.RequirementsTo run Isolation you need the GameMaster framework installed, which provides the board, networking and turn management. The rulebook itself is a small data file that GameMaster loads at startup.Source codeThe submitter notes that the Think Pascal 4.0 source for the rulebook should be available elsewhere in the Info-Mac archive, and offers to mail it on request, reflecting the open culture around early Mac shareware tools.SourceBinHex header from game-master-isolation.hqx in Info-Mac game/brd.
