bah. millitary madness ftw! :p lost days upon days on that one!
Nice find! I’m still waiting for someone to grab the “Mail Order Monsters” license and give that a proper remake. That could be one hell of an online game that would let you jump in and play quickly and get back out without much trouble.
Ooo, could be a good cell phone game too maybe. 🙂 Or the DS. I don’t know why, I just see it being portable. I’m lazy, I should do it.
Weird! I was going to mention Archon alongside M.U.L.E. and Seven Cities of Gold as one of my faves in your other recent nostalgic post. So much fun…
I in fact have all three of those running on my phone. Three of my favorite games of all time.
There was a hobbyist Archon that was in progress that had all the stats for the critters direct from Jon Freeman. It seems to have died off though. 🙁
Archon is still one of my all time faves from the Atari 800XL
blast from the past…nice find!
