About the Game:
"""""""""""""""
Experience the pride of being the first airline to cross the atlantic!
Flight today is big business. Many airlines are household names and yet they
all began as small companies not very long ago. Flight is also one of the
fastest changing industries in the world - new planes come out, new destina-
tions become important, new companies set up and old ones go BUST..every year!
AIR BUCKS is your chance to build an airline - it won't be easy, but if
you make it the rewards are huge! You start off with $100,000 and a Dakota
(DC-3)plane - in 1946, at the start of the air travel boom. You must decide
which places to fly to, where to use as a hub, when to buy new planes and
which ones to buy, with what quantity of first class, economy or cargo. New
planes become available over time, from DC9 to the Jumbo and even the Concord!
But beware - just because a plane is new does not mean it is the best of you
- you must decide. You must also find the cash to pay for it; and planes
don't come cheap! You are sure to need the help of your friendly bank sooner
or later, or even to sell shares!!!

About the Game:
"""""""""""""""
HIGH in the Andes, a biting wind howls throught the Incas' ruined strong-
holds. Half a world away, the Pharaohs, tombs lie empty. In Italy, the Roman
Colosseum decays. Everywhere, you see remnants of societies that thought they
world endure forever. All are dust. But yours could be different. You could
be the one person in history who builds an empire that never FALLS.
That's the challenge of CIVILIZATION, the most enthralling "god game" yet
developed. From the creator of RAILROAD TYCOON - The SPA's 1990 strategy Game
of the YEAR - CIVILIZATION lets you match wits with history's greatest leaders.
YOU Start at the dawn of recorded history - 4,000 B.C. and the founding
of the first cities - then nurture your society toward the Space Age. In the
beginning, you'll labor to simply survive while building your settlements,
discovering new technologies and fending off barbarians.
AS your empire prospers, you'll face competing civilizations guided by
history's most legendary figures: ALEXANDER the GREAT, NAPOLEON, GENGHIS
KHAN, JULIUS CAESAR and more. Now you'll test your capacity for expansion
and domination, your ability to outwit and outmaneuver those cunning and
brilliant leaders.
JUST LOOK HOW CIVILIZATION LETS YOU BUILD A BRAVE NEW WORLD...
[-->] DISCOVER NEW TECHNOLOGIES...
you dictate how your civilization grows by controlling the technologies
it discovers - mastery of one technology provides the opportunity to
learn new ones. Over 70 of mankind's greatest technical achievements
are available, including the Wheel, The Alphabet, Mapmaking, Navigation
and even Nuclear Weapons.
[-->] BUILD WONDERS OF THE WORLD...
Earn the respect of your people - and the envy of the world as you
construct the pyramids, the Great Wall and other wonders of antiquity,
the Middle Ages or the modern era. Each Wonder you build brings
special benefits of your society...
[-->] DETERMINE THE FATE OF YOUR PEOPLE...
Every crucial economic, political and military decision is yours
- and yours alone. From population growth to industrial policy.
Scientific development to military power, the destiny of your
civilization is in your hands...
[-->] CHOOSE FROM FLEXIBLE STARTING OPTIONS...
So players of all levels can have fun and be challenged, you select
from five difficulty settings, while playing on Earth or on a new
planet generated for each game.
[-->] ENJOY THE EASY TO USE INTERFACE...
The Point-and-Click, Icon-based Interface makes it easy to gather
information, make decisions. Virtually any game related question
or concern is addressed in the on-line "CIVILOPEDIA."
"WILL archaeologists yet unborn puzzle over the decline and fall of the
culture you built? Or will your culture be the one that finally achieves
earthly immortality?"
"You'll find the answer only in CIVILIZATION..."
