MicroProse? Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

Microprose? They survived? Or is this just some company that bought the name?

[–] DarkMetatron@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kind of both in some way. New company with a few of the old people under new management.

Thanks for that. I had so many MP games back in the day. MOO2 is still probably my favorite strategy game of all time.

Although I like the retro look for nostalgic reasons, this look a bit too low res for my tastes. I hope there will be some options in that regard.
