DOS version
Quite simply the greatest, most addictive computer game ever.
The Good
Everything. It still stands up very well to this day.
The graphics were great at the time, and even today their simplicty and clean-ness makes it very enjoyable to play. The sounds do their job - they let you know what's going on without intruding. The gameplay is simply staggering, with infinite variety. No two games are ever alike.
The Bad
It's possibly too addictive. The amount of time I wasted (?) on this game over the years is mind-boggling.
The Bottom Line
Quite simply the greatest, most addictive computer game ever.
