Best place I can find to put this ...

What is this screenie from?

 

[Catz]

Can I guess?

 

[Entropy]

Outpost

 

[Kelger]

Yup, outpost, space building type strategy thingy iirc. Seemed a bit long winded and such to play, had a nice intro though

 

[Zeus]

yeah, i remember outpost. was much fun. lost it though

 

[Bertyr]

Yup

I thought I'd lost it, spent the last week going through, ours, my Nans (where I lived before) and my parents attics, then after all that my mum said 'oh it could be in this drawer' and there it was with a pile of old old floppy games too, monkey island, Dune2 (THE original strategy game!) etc - I'd just had a sudden urge to play it again 10 years on!

Still addictive ... just .. just one more turn!!

I did wonder if they had done anything else for it since its release, but can find bugger all on sierra's site ... the manual talks as if it was going to be an in development game, with more stuff being added later ... sorta like Total Annihilation I guess.

The animations are good

Plays fine under winXP too, good for a Win 3.1.1 game!
