Operation Wimp Operation Wimp is a simple reflex game written in STOS. The background story is that you have managed to trap the mad wargamer Evil Eddy in your computer and now he is trying to escape via one of your video games. You can not stop him but the longer you delay him the less powerful he will be when he escapes.

When you play, Eddy will charge out of the screen at you and you must then move the mouse over his head and press the left mouse button to stop his advance. If you fail to stop him he will hit the screen and bounce off. If he hits the screen too many times the screen will break and he escapes. For every time you hit him he will gain some speed.

The player can load his/her own background image or draw one in the game. [source:mobygames]
