What’s MARS? I couldn’t find any reference that seemed to match due to… well, the ambiguitiy of the name :D

I thought this as well.
Oups, I misremembered: the game is called Core War. In it, MARS (“Memory Array Redcode Simulator”) is the name of a virtual machine that executes Redcode instructions. As a player, you write small programs (“warriors”) to be loaded on the virtual machine where they try to prevail while klling off (overwriting) opponent programs.
Thanks for that - much appreciated. Sorry I failed to respond earlier, I’m still getting used to the fediverse, and seem to have managed to get multiple accounts so… yeah
