INSTALL
From the source file
You need Python, Pygame and the Numeric module to launch the game from its source file (under Ubuntu, you need to install "python", "python-pygame" and "python-numeric" with Synaptic).
Once Python and Numeric installed, you can download this file:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/elderlore/moe_source.1.0b4.zip
and extract it to a folder. Launch it under a terminal window with the command "python moe-pygame.py".
If you want to play the game with no graphics, you can launch the curses version in a terminal with the command "python moe-curses.py". If you change the terminal size, the game will adjust accordingly to maximize the display area. The minimal size for the game to play is 80 columns by 25 rows.
