š¾ NEW PODCAST! š¾ We had a look at Empire, originally developed by Walter Bright in the 1970s for the PDP-10, and later released for various systems, including MS-DOS with 1987's Empire: Wargame of the Century, and 1993's Empire: Deluxe.
This is a very early example of a turn-based strategy wargame, and one that would have a big influence on the genre. Sid Meier among others has mentioned Empire is a big inspiration for Civilization.
