Venables 1.5.1

An abstract two-player strategy game with a twist: instead of moving your pieces yourself, you control them indirectly by means of a cursor on an auxiliary board. You can make more than one move on the same turn, and capture more than one piece in a single move. Despite its novel features, Venables is easy to learn. The computer provides a patient opponent while you are getting used to the game.
