Finally got around to playing M.U.L.E. A Strategy game from 1983, and EA's very first game!
Not a bad game at all. Worlds better then utopia was. At least I could figure out just what the heck I was supposed to be doing.
That’s always the problem with old computer games. Unless you have the manual, you’re completely lost. Luckily I’m kinda used to that already, when I was a kid, my Mom would always buy me obscure computer games from thrift stores and it would be up to me and my brother to try and figure out just how to play them. Computer games didn’t have to be as accessible as arcade games did. They had more room to try new things and expand on different genres. It’s fascinating to watch.
