You set up a perimiter and, thanks to your great physical shape, are able to run around the building and shoot at the creatures for a long time where normal people would drop dead of exhaustion...

    You could change things up a bit and include some S's or whatever to be the scientists fleeing for their lives, and so you don't want to shoot them, but the X's (monsters) will move toward the scientists since they want some revenge for all the experiments done to them, so not only are you trying to prevent the creatures from escaping the perimiter you set up, but you are also trying to rescue the fleeing scientists and you get bonus points for every scientist that makes it past your perimiter without being eaten by a monster...
    Awesome. This reminds me of some of my old Odyssey II titles.

    As I grow older, I don't have time to learn the complex games of today. I like simpler games like this.
