Reception
ACE called the game "one of the most in depth and entertaining strategy games yet". Your Sinclair said the game is "[d]espite appearances, a superb management game — versatile and very addictive." Power Play (magazine) said the game gets boring quickly because there's a lack of variety in the gameplay. Amiga Format said that management game fans may find the game too shallow but more casual players may enjoy it more.
