4.0 out of 5 stars Very good Wild West game, 14 Jan 2003

Play A Part In History, And Strategise Your Way to Settling In America!

America - A real-time strategy game of power, lust, ambition and greed set in the Wild West. You control the destiny of a group of Settlers, Native Americans, Mexicans or Outlaws. Build shelter, find food, buy, breed and steal horses, and send your troops to battle as you lay claim to the untouched lands and resources of the West.

I'm amazed this is the only cavalry v indians game on the market when everyone over 30 grew up with wild west films. I've played this engrossing game for hours and its as good as age of empires - just transported to the old west.

Movement, piling up arms, food, men and resources are very realistic.

The finale is the battle of the little bighorn - and this time the cavalry can win !

Overall, very good and recommended to any wild west gamer !

1.0 out of 5 stars BUGGIEST GAME I EVER PLAYED, 24 Jan 2001
By Roscoe Himple - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: America (CD-ROM)
I have NEVER, in 13 years of playing PC games run into one that has so many problms. It is a shame that the publisher released this game in UNFINISHED coondition. It has been in the stores since January 14th. First of all, every time you put the game in the CD drive, it wants to reinstall itself. The mouse pointer disappears during game play. The audio quality is horible. The game freezes constantly when you can get the mouse pointer to stay alive. It speeds up. It slows down. It was installed on both a WIN95 and WIN98 computer, both with Gforce 2 video cards and 128MB ram. On the Data Becker web site, they claim a patch is comming soon. Ya know what, don't bother. It's not worth the grief. Oh, and when I uninstalled it, it uninstalled DirectX. I had to reinstall DirectX and reconfigure my video drivers on BOTH computers. If this is the way they release games, these folks should be forbidden from selling, period.

3.0 out of 5 stars If you liked 'Age of Empires' you'll like this-, 3 Mar 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: America (CD-ROM)
I don't know what everyone is complaining about- I've had absolutely no problems at all. I'm running an 800mhz Athlon with a Gforce Prophet. It's identical to 'Age of Empires'. Same interface, etc. You can play an Indian, settler, Mexican or Outlaw. Each have their own unique traits and skills. It's not bad. The game playing options are a little limited but I like the idea of playing "cowboys and Indians" and riding in on my stolen horse to burn settlers houses was quite amusing! It's different from all those other games out there and I applaud those game makers out there trying to break the "Quake" mold to which I'm totally bored with....

1.0 out of 5 stars Fun game (has potential) but numerous BUGS, 27 Jan 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: America (CD-ROM)
This game is fun with the exception of some major bugs. There seems to be major graphic and mouse problems. My system easily met all the requirements but I had nothing but problems from the initial install. I even tried the latest patch 1.01 and things got worse. The games locks up right at the main menu screen with the patch installed. It's too bad, the game was right fun even though I had to suffer through the graphic and mouse problems before the patch. P.S. - I don't have any problems running Age of Empies II, Sudden Strike, Shogun and Command and Conquer Red Alert 2. Buyer beware...
