Any good rules of thumb for Ports of Call?
« on: November 20, 2006, 12:05:49 AM »
I've just discovered what a strangely adictive game Ports of Call is.

A lot of years ago, I got a version that came with a bunch of disks at the MIT flea market, but got discouraged pretty quickly.

Playing it again, I find its very enjoyable, but still a little frustrating. All I see is my bank accounts quickly dwindle to nothing  :-x  and then of course, my ships on the bottom of the ocean.

For those who made a success of it, what were some of your methods?

Any way to stop people from stealing from your bank account? :pissed:

Thanks.

Have you tried the new PC version? I was surprised to see that the original authors have put out an updated version for PCs. It looks very nice.

They said they had to sue Aegis in order to get the money they spent researching the game. :rtfm:
