Summary

My first introduction to the wonderfull world of Pc Gaming

The Good

This was a reproduction of a commadore 64 game "mars saga". I played both and there was almost no difference in either. I just loved this game. there was so much depth to the play and the options. I was hooked and for years to come I would spend hours and hours loving other games because of this one. Although by today's standard this game is very old and cranky. When Mars Saga came out in the 80's it was so far above other commadore games. It would be like having played Mario 64 on the atari. It was way above all the other games.

The Bad

I never did beat this game. I know there was a couple of things that I did not like but I have long forgotten what they were.

The Bottom Line

What can I say..... If you have been playing games as long as I have and you like to play old commadore games go find a copy of this one. I know that I often think of this game even though its been at least 10 years since I played it.
