1503 A.D.: The New World
Windows version
OK game, but lacks map editor
The Good
The game's petite fun. I mean, it's kinda fun to explore the game world, meet other players and Natives, and watch your cities grow from simple pioneers to aristocrats rich in wealth. The graphics aren't 3D but still high in detail level. And the music is nice and easy for a game around the time of Christopher Columbus.
The Bad
There is no multiplayer mode in the game.
Money is earned from shops and not taxes, this makes it hard for new players and at the start of the game.
Unlike 1602 AD there's no map editor, which stinks because I liked the map editor for 1602 AD it was fun to make your own ideas for missions come to life in that game.
The Bottom Line*
A fun mix of RTS and city-building during the time of Christopher Columbus. If you like 1602 AD you'll probably like this game even more!
