Star Control

aka: starcon
Moby ID: 205

DOS version

Space Wars revistied and turbo-boosted

The Good
When Star Control arrived, it almost single-handedly re-invented the PC as an arcade machine (Thexder was the first, IMHO.) The speed of play and the game depth of each different spaceship made for hours of "Five Minute Fun."

The Bad
The strategy game was very hard to play/visualize.

The Bottom Line
A classic game begging for another sequel.
