The game is one of the greats, little else can be said. The review from 2011 stating that it's a great game and horrible port may have been true at that time, but no longer. You won't be getting modern resolutions but you'll be able to play this gem just fine - and it'll look great for what it is and when it was made. For reference, I'm using Windows 8.1; no compatibility issues whatsoever. Framerate is stable and smooth, game runs wonderfully. Enjoy it. DK2 should be played.
Master of Orion 1 + 2 are the games to beat in the realm of turn based empire builders. Galactic Civilizations may be the new bar for today, but the bar that started it all is right here. These are some of the best strategy games to ever grace this Earth. If you are a fan of the genre, you owe it to yourself to buy, play, and play again - these classics.
