Description
Utopia by Mattel (for Intellivision) - In the early 80's, it was very rare to find unique strategy games on the homefront. Mattel really broke ground with this game, which was undeniably modeled after the popular computer game Emperor. The object is to be the better ruler, with two players simultaneously controlling their own continent. You have many options: do you play peacefully, and try to win by out-ruling the opponent, or aggressively, by smashing his fishing boats and sending rebels to destroy his land? Simple but adequate graphics and some very unique sound effects (the rainfall effect is one of the best for this system) combined with challenging gameplay puts Utopia in a class all its own.
