Yup, you're right. This is a true strategy gem. Too bad the new PC version was #¤%#&%*(/&%%#**... Well, it didn't match my expectations, to cut it short.

Little to nothing in the way of graphics or sound, but great strategy and amazing gameplay. The spreadsheet-like interface is elegant and effective. It's very different, and one of the most addictive games I ever played on the C64.

I have the book Reach For The Star, The conquest of the galaxy but no game in it. Where can I down load it on the web in D64?

Arguably one of the funnest, most sophisticated multi-player strategy games on any computer platform. Not at all easy to learn, but well worth the effort. The interface is very elegant, once it is understood.
