The 1990 Edition

Language(s):
Type:	Strategy	Publishers (last):
HDInst:	Not known	Publishers (orig):	Mindscape
Released:	1989	Developers:	Chris Crawford Elaine Ditton
Description:	A reworked version of the 1987 release which has now has 82 as opposed to the original 60 countries and you now have 4 advisors. Not the easiest game to get into, though persistence will reap rewards. Playing 2 or 3 turns can take an hour or more due to the amount of info you have available to check before making your decisions. The game was designed for the Mac and this shows in the gfx which are virtually the same on the Amiga. So one for the strategy fans, certainly not for those who want flashy gfx or a quick casual game.
