If you looked at the README :
What is Core War?
Core War is a game in which two or more virus-like programs fight
against
each other in a simulated memory space or core. Core War programs are
written in an assembly language called Redcode which is interpreted by
a
Core War simulator or MARS (Memory Array Redcode Simulator). The
object of
the game is to prevent the other program(s) from executing. For more
information about Core War check out the usenet newsgroup
rec.games.corewar
and its FAQ list ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/games/corewar-faq
