Anacreon: Reconstruction 4021 Anacreon: Reconstruction is, without a doubt, one of --if not THE-- best strategy games ever made. It was released in the 1988 and bombed, mostly due to its high price and ASCII graphics. It is a 1 to 8 player game in which you build and manage an intergalatic empire. You can build armies, starbases, turn entire planets into chemical plants or shipyards, terrorize and mine trade routes, build stargates, launch long-range cruise missles, decide whether a planet should be isolated or requiring constant supplies from outside (if you should addict your loyal subjects to labor-improving drugs), and much, much more. To say the least, its NOT a simple game. But it is excellent and very fun to play, especially with friends. Definitely Top Dog material, and a must-have for all armchair commanders. Best of all, the author George Morimisato has released the latest and best version (1.3) as freeware, and even converted the entire manual to HTML format. Thanks, George!
