Atari 8bit game?

oh and i agree that ADG's 'lite' guess sounds like M.U.L.E or one of its clones. Did it have funky music?

I don't remember the music... I just looked at the underdogs site, and searched for M.U.L.E. but the game it found didn't look like this game at all

It had much better graphics, and was avaliable on the Amiga

Give us more detailed clues of the game was it a full release game or shareware maybe?

It wasn't Battle Isle, or anything near it...


I can't really remember more about this game...

The map was a grid-layout, like Civ1, though the map was fixed size, and was always the same size as the screen.
You could choose between 4 different 'locations' as far as I remember, I think I remember something about a dessert and ice-look. It didn't change the gameplay though... it had a futuristic feel...

I can't give more information about this game, because for some reason I can't remember... I just remember I played it 'a lot' (more than average on the games I had... not as much as Civ though )

It didn't include trains, and the graphics wasn't that good


And I don't know utopia (And the "dog-site" doesn't work for me for some reason)... and I don't have time to search for other places for this game... not until Friday that is (exam-project)

SWEEEEDIIIISH GAAAAME!!!

Clue #1: Sweden has had many game developers spring up from its shores in the computer era. Only one has been truly successful. At over 200 employees, they've got the size necessary to simultaneously release a plethora of small-budget educational titles and several enormous hit games (one of which, uniquely in swedish history, recently went straight to #1 in the US). They show no signs of slowing down and have recently expanded into another country as well.

This was their first game.

Sort of doubt it, but eh.

It's probably really a First Person Shooter.

Well, no. And anyway EU wasn't their first game.

Clue #2: Originally Amiga, then PC, Gameboy, Gamegear, SNES, Atari Falcon, early nineties. Had two successful sequels, the latter of which shares part of its name with the developer.

Don't confuse them, poor children. I thought people might get the developer but their only FPS series is certainly not what I'm looking for.

Well thats certainly a fair smatering of platforms it was released on..............so it must have been a popular game........so i must know it

Erm...Gloom?

I'm being confused ok!

Oh and ADG give me some more details whenever you want(like what genre the game was/what you had to do in it/what you controlled/anything that stood out to you as the games best qualities etc - i know how it feels to forget the name of a cool game you once played, i was looking for over 2yrs once!)

Is it called UFO something? Its the only UFO simulator of its kind as far as i know, uses a flight sim approach?

The horror aspect could be that i've heard it was quite an awful game?
