I loved this game. I would play it for hours. It only got better when I got an A1200 as the maximum map size simply got larger. The original had a feel and gameplay that the follow ups never really matched in my opinion. There's nothing like needing that last granite block for a building and watching it traverse from one side of your kingdom to the other really really really slowly. Then waiting for the knights to walk all the way to the outpost. Brilliant game.
Recently I've been playing minecraft ... that has all the fun of hunting for coal, iron and gold, except you're the miner, farmer, builder ...
