Game description:
In The Seven Cities of Gold the player takes on the role of Christopher Columbus and the later Spanish conquistadors, exploring the New World (or a randomly generated map). As the player establishes forts and missions, bringing back gold to Spain, he or she would receive promotions from the Queen of Spain. The game features a large world to explore and comes up with some arcade sequences to simulate the interaction of the Natives and Spanish who did not speak the same language. The historical map accurately spreads out the Native population of the New World in 1492 and some historical situations can be simulated, such as whether to get the gold of the Aztec and Incas by trade or conquest.
What I think:
Children of the sun, see your time has just begun...Nah, just kidding. ;)
Anyways, this game is kinda deep and interesting, but it becomes too repetitive and sometimes even tedious.
It is also really hard trying to trade with the natives, unfortunately. As much as I would love to trade with them they always bump into me, no matter how hard I try to avoid them, giving me no other chance to fight them. *sigh*
