Treasure Island is the first "Simultaneous Strategy" game. It
combines the intensity and unpredictability of "real time"
strategy games with the go at your own pace and control of
"turn based" strategy games. Both sides move at the same
time, but they can only move one person at a time.
The goal of the game is to be the first team to get more than half the treasure chests buried on the island back to your ships. Conflicts are resolved with swordfights. There are 3 expeditions (games) in this season, 20 in the full version. Each expedition has a different island, different goals, and is played against a pirate team that is also being developed by one of the ten possible pirate captains. Depending on the team size chosen, your team could add a new player before each expedition. There are five distinct types of players with which to build your team. In addition, you coach/develop these players before each expedition. The makeup and temperament of the team will reflect your coaching style. So, load up your ship and head off to Treasure Isle matey! Note: Available on CD-ROM issue only and is for Windows 95 only. |
