h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Your explanation is brilliant except that you never mention at any point what sort of game this is. I assume it is a computer game, not a board game, although you don't explain for what systems/specs it is intended.
Being bogged down in the details can lead to missing obvious stuff. But then again, that's what the ability to revise an article is for.

Sounds like a great game!

The fact that it's a computer game is covered in the link to real-time strategy games, in the first paragraph. It plays on just about any windows machine less than 5 years old. Maybe mac too, i don't know.

SC is the kind of wonderful game that doesnt require massive processing power to run.

The requirements are:

Pentium 133, 16 megs of ram, around 200 megs of hard drive space and a svga video card, most cell phones are ump-times faster than that nowadays. Sure, it might get choppy when a butchering is going on, but hey, it will run and not give you bull about graphics drivers.

Runs on MAC as well, but people who have macs are serious and dont play games so yeah.

Still, with graphics over 10 years old, it is easy on the eye and very clear. One up for Blizzard (again), they never fail to polish a game until it shines like diamonds.
