The first kind of builder game i have ever played. Certainly not the most complex title within the genre but a fun little experience nonetheless. Still own the original disc and from what i have seen it runs just fine.

I remember playing a demo version of this game in my childhood. I never had the full version. Unfortunatly the game cannot be found anywhere to purchase today. It's similar to Sim City 2000, but instead of building a city you create a little holiday paradise on a tropical island.

I absolutly love this game, someone did make a re-make, but nothing compares to the game play and music of this game. It'd be amazing to have this back again! Gotta love nostalgia.

This is a classic. As one of the early building games, it is a bit rough around the edges, but you can feel how much love the developers poured into this game. I hope everyone will have the chance to play this nostalgic gem.
Such fond memories of playing this back in the mid 90s on my 486. I was already a fan of SimCity 2000 at that point and Holiday Island scratched a similar itch for me. Would love to see this getting properly updated to modern-day standards.

I just loved this game, just an easy going but engaging game for anyone who likes city builders, theme park, theme hospital etc. Please get this game on GOG! :)
Super gra, muzyka i cała atmosfera. Przypominają się stare czasy i lepsze bez zmartwień;-) What a great game and brings back a full load of childhood memories with less worries. Just the soundtrack puts you in a Holiday mood and you feel like being transported somewhere to the Caribbean

Got this game way back in the 90s and had a lot of fun building the perfect holiday resort while competing with the AI for the best islands and the various monuments (Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower) being offered in auctions.

Dune
DuneDune is a 1992 video game, based upon Frank Herbert's science fiction novel of the same name. Developed by Cryo Interactive, is the first of the Dune computer games. Dune blended adventure with economic and military strategy, and is considered by many the most immersive Dune computer game. Loosely following the story of the novel, the game casts the player as Paul Atreides, with the ultimate goal of driving the Harkonnen from Planet Dune, while managing spice extraction, military, and later, ecology through the native Fremen tribes. As the player progresses, his troops are equipped with weapons from "crysknives" to atomics, tap into Paul's latent psychic powers, and get acquainted with such characters from the book as Chani and Liet-Kynes.
