Scorched 3D 41.3c

Scorched 3D is a game based loosely (or actually quite heavily now) on the classic DOS game Scorched Earth, \"The Mother Of All Games\". Scorched 3D adds amongst other new features a 3D island environment and LAN and internet play. Scorched 3D is totally free and is available for most operating systems.
