Battle Isle Platinum (includes Incubation)

Players who remember Military Madness on the TurboGrafx-16 or Nectaris on the PC will enjoy Battle Isle. Incubation is a turn-based, tactical strategy game similar to X-Com. All of these games are great fun and the volume of game content in this package is impressive.

Look, don't get me wrong, I loved the battle isle series (even drew some fan comics based on the games!) but it just doesn't work...even with the help of Dosbox. The controls are like a shopping trolley, going all over the place and half the time they don't even work. The graphics have a hard time adjusting to modern pc's and the animations run at super speeds. Not very satisfying when you want to see your hard thought out strategy pay off!

I also bought it only to play Incubation. It is a great turn based strategy game, just wish it was longer, like Spellcross, I hope that GOG will release that gem too, gameplay takes a month and it is also based on economy and research along with a breath taking story.

tatsächlich nur wegen kindheitserinnerungen gekauft (im sale).l... hl 14-18 damals mit papa & gr. bruder auf nem 4x86 mit 33mhz Turbo-Mode gespielt, battle isle 1&2 dann etwas später mit gr. bruder auf nem 4x86 66mhz & besserer grafik-&soundkarte...von battle isle 3&4 wusste ich gar nichts...;) it's a nice add-on for my 2 lil i4770/i4790 4gb gpu 8/16gb ram win10 pc's; on them i play older pc (90's - early2010's)/dos/amiga-emu games...still looking out for older cheap games on sale...

After installing the 25th Anniversary Edition mod for Incubation, the game still would not work for me. However, setting the Launcher.exe file to Windows 7 compatibility mode then worked for me with Windows 10.
