MANHUNT

MANHUNT is written by Paul Kienitz

The premise of the game is that you are on the LUGIMEN's planet of ARCTURUS IV and you've just esacped CITY HALL and you must make your way to the EARTH EMBASSY. But, you must first navigate the most annoying, ridiculous, and inefficient transportation systems ever designed. You take an automatic taxi and route it through the transportation systems by NSEW cardinal directions where you move spaces by the numbers in the grid. You choose 1 to 9 cops to evade and they too have to navigate the 12 by 12 grid in the same manner.
