Summary

One of my favorite games.

The Good

The entire premise is great. Several different times and locales, many different engines and goods to ship, random events, hostile takeovers! A great capitalist strategy game! I have logged countless hours in front of it!

The Bad

The sounds are not all that great, sometimes poorly placed ... no multiplayer option ... a large gap between too easy and too hard in the difficulty options.

The Bottom Line

A time-less classic in the great Sid Meier style!
