A challenging space game, Conflict 2500 is a radical departure from the typical first generation one-ship startrek type games. In Conflict 2500, you have the option to set the scenarios; ranging from one-on-one competition against the computer, to elaborate situations involving up to 10 people.
Galaxy allows from 1 to 20 players to compete against each other and the computer in a struggle for control of up to 40 star systems. The computer produces a different galaxy every game.
How far ahead can you plan your maneuvers against the computer-controlled pieces? Each type moves in its own set pattern, relentlessly, while you attempt to move your single piece to the top of the board. Each successful round brings on another opposing piece and the task gets more difficult.
Just another routine tour, you think, as you settle back into the plush comfort of the captain's chair. On the bridge of Space Station Zulu you find the familiar clicking and purring of the bridge's complex machinery soothing to your nerves. Half in a trance, you look forward to this evening's Yargian gambling game, Snirt.
