💾NEW PODCAST!💾 We took a look at Machiavelli the Prince, developed by Holistic Design and published by Microprose in 1995.

The game has nothing to do with Machiavelli, who was from Florentine while the game is set in Venice, and who lived after the events of this game.

While not as famous as other MPS titles such as Colonization, there is a lot to love here. Computer Gaming World named it “Strategy game of the year” for a reason!
