BisouLand is a free browser-based strategy game that turns romance into competitive gameplay.

Join other players online as you strategically send Kisses to capture Love Points and dominate the clouds.

Simple to learn, engaging to master, and completely free to play.

A delightfully retro online strategy game from 2005, lovingly preserved in its original state. Experience a fascinating time capsule of early web development and quirky game design.

To install BisouLand, first get its sources:

git clone git://github.com/pyricau/bisouland.git bisouland
cd bisouland

This is a monorepo. The apps folder contains the different applications:

• Monolith: the main (original) BisouLand application
• QA: tools to keep BisouLand on its toes

The packages folder contains shared libraries used across apps. See How to manage packages for details.

BisouLand uses the 43YYX port convention:

• 43 = "love you" prefix (love = 4 letters, you = 3 letters)
• YY = app identifier (00 = monolith, 01 = qa, etc)
• X = service type (0 = web server, 1 = database, etc.)

For example:

• 43000: Monolith web server
• 43001: Monolith database
• 43010: QA web server
