Is this a straight port of the 8-bit version or a new version?

It was a very popular game in it's day, so I bet there's a lot of nostalga buffs out there that'd go for it.

Posts: 555 		It would be a new version I expect.
If you want a version, the only chance I can see is to lobby Simon Storr (who has the distinction of being the last person to write a BBC micro game AFAIK) to port his PC conversion which includes updated graphics and is planned to add new depths to the game.
His site has a forum for exchange of these ideas :
www.symo.org.uk/exile
symo@clara.co.uk
Hope you don't mind Simon!!!
