Game Type : Space Strategy
Games in the Pack : Deuteros, Millenium 2.2
Launcher Developer : The Company.pl
Info from our previous article : Designed by Ian Bird and
released in 1991. The game is set some 800 years after Millennium, in a
time when mankind has won the struggle to make the Earth habitable
again but lost its spacefaring capabilities, which it is seeking to
regain. This is no ordinary space game and so far there has been no game
like it since. In my youth of playing it which was purchased at a local
market I spent an entire summer without hardly ever seeing daylight
just playing it. The object of the game is to mine resources, research
new tech and to colonize further out into the solar system. You
can train new 3 categories of civilians : Producers, Researchers and
Marines, out of a pool of 6000 population. The longer these teams are
used, they are advanced in three levels, required for some later action
(some inventions can be manufactured only by a producer who is at
“Expert” level while Pilots with the rank of “Admiral” will be more
effective in battles). Don’t expect amazing graphics but do expect deep
thoughtful gameplay with thousands of drones fighting away at each other
as you battle to defend yourself against the Methanoids. If you decide
to give up it’s rather satisfying hitting the Self Destruct button, the
nuke button oh and you can even chill out with the Music Box which
comes later. This is a game NOT to be missed
Release : Available now FREE
Systems : PC
All of these versions (2.6) contain high quality filters for your PC and all you
have
to do is download, run the exe and press F12 in game for extra settings(filters).
The software is based on the original rom file and remastered through
an emulator in a single exe. You may get a Virus Warning through low quality virus checkers, it’s a false positive!
You’ll be pleased to know that after all these months, The Company.pl have finally fixed the save issue! This is a great fix as without the save, the game was pretty much impossible.
