"Greates old Game out there"

First I will say I still play this game even though it is very old. If you don't like games that are old with not the greatest graphics, and that take a long time then don't play this game. I am pretty sure you can just download it for free nowadays so it wouldn't hurt to try playing it.
Gameplay 9/10 This game is so much better than master of orion 2 or 3 in the way of gameplay. You can control every thing the AI doesn't start doing every thing for you. Also this game is a lot less complicated than master of orion 3. It does have a few problems and race imbalances but still a fun game.
Sound?/10 I dont really know what to give it in this catagory lets just say it isnt very good but i will let you decide for yourself.
Graphics7/10 if this game were made now i would have given it a -5/10 but for when it was made its graphics are fairly average but the game itself is still fun.
Replayability 9/10 You can replay this game so many times i have been playing this game since i was like 7 (yes i do have a life) there are many different races to choose from each with their own strengths and weaknesses and the map is diferent every time and you can play in different sized galaxys.
Fun 8/10 Games of this do take quite a while 2-4 hours but they are pretty fun and if you get bored of it for the day you can just save your game and start up tommorow.

I would have given this game a ten out of ten but I dont think any games are perfect. Since this game can i beleive be downloaded for free since it is so old you can't really go wrong by trying it out except wasting a couple of minutes. you will either like it or you wont. If you liked civilaization 1,2,or3 and alpha centauri, you will probably enjoy this game. I dont play it that much but it is a good game to play when their isn't really anything else to do and if you are like me and can't find any new games that are coming out that are any good at all =( then this game is fun.
