Summary
Good Game!
The Good
I enjoy the sim-city style games, and this one has been a favorite of mine since the mid '90's. It's fun formatting the islands to get them in the shapes you want (using the money cheat), and challenging to get the sims to move into the places you create for them.
The Bad
I have the "abandonware" version. One time (only once) I managed to get the auctions to come up, but then the game hung on one day. I still haven't found a users manual for it yet.
The Bottom Line
There are some things I have learned, though. DELETE key spins the map. To save your game, choose save, then type the name and press ENTER.
