A multiplayer Colonization game?

Do you remember Sid Meirs old classic game Colonization?

The one where you would get skilled people in Europe to install into town in the new world, find the fountain of youth, or take the Aztec gold etc

That was always a single player game it was a tragedy that no hacker ever made that a multi player game...? or did they? I would buy it tomorrow.

Does anyone know or remember Colonization? And did you ever or play or even see a multiplayer version of that game?

Hi There!
Yeah, there's a free version out there called 'FreeCol' - I'm pretty sure it has Multiplayer!

I never really worried about it not being Multiplayer. What makes me sad is that it's no longer available anywhere. I'd buy it immediately.

But until then, I will have to make do with that free version. Thanks for that link!

I loved that game.

I'd love a remake or a sequel to this game. I played this game a lot on the Amiga. Never completed it once, but still used plenty of hours and trying several times.

I loved that game too very fun. A multiplayer version would be intresting.
