This is my second foray into Tradewars 2002. The first one wasn't very involved, but this one is quite cool--to get in at the start.
Of course, this got me thinking about other multiplayer business games set in space. For instance, M.U.L.E. is a true classic that I remember fondly and still play from time to time on abandonware.
Others have mentioned VGA Planets, which I could never get to work right, but was one of the first graphical client/server games that are similar to this genre. If anybody is interested, I would be willing to see what the state of the art is on VGA Planets.
Of course, Pirates! has a feeling like Tradewars 2002, if you have a successful plan, although it isn't multiplayer, and is not set in space. I play that on abandonware too (although my projector doesn't seem to like changing resolutions to 800x600 of the C64 emulator).
Walk down nostalgia lane and give me your faves!
