anyone played this one? I randomly stumbled across it in a game shop. Didn't buy it, but my curiosity is piqued.
meh
play colonisation (the original) instead. Hell, even the remake is better
Or buy Conquest of the Americas from GOG.com.-
The Sid Meier's Colonization remake has an awesome mod made by Germans, available at civfanatics.
worse than colonization eh?
Guessed there was probally a reason I hadn't heard of it.
The original Conquest of the Americas had some fun elements. This looks like a remake that emphasizes the less fun elements.
Seven Cities of Gold stands out for me as the pinnacle in this genre. :sleep:

Going in with peaceful intent, popping the king and then ending up sacking a bunch of Inca cities: Priceless
Alas, "Amaze the natives" never seemed to work for very long. :(
The big downside I remember, is that even when you do establish a town, they're not self-sufficient at all. Need to freight in food for those lazy bastards.
