I first came in contact with the game via a demo, it took a while before I understood the game completely. I was so enthousiast about the graphics, the gameplay, the friendly looking land and people and the economic aspects, that I bought the game. That was in 1996. Still today I get the CD and play it until the sleep overwhelmed me. The music provided on the cd is also great. Concluded: Great game, everyone should know. Alsow very nice that Bluebyte made a 10th aniversary edition.
