It looks pretty BASIC (sic) but this is actually an incredibly well-designed and relatively complex strategy game set in outer space. You have to take over a number of planets in a 1000 year time span, building up your military force, recruiting troops, scouting distant systems and taxing your occupied planets. A real 'epic' - possibly the pinnacle of what has been achieved in Atari BASIC. |
| This game brings back good memories.... It really is an immersive strategy game, giving orders to the crew and trying to be the ruler of the galaxy by building up forces and attacking planets....
Another great thing was that I learned programming basic through this game. I often loaded it up to peek in the entire listing of the game, trying to find out what was happening and what commands did.... |
