- GMoromisato 6mo agoJerry Pournelle reviewed my 4X game Anacreon back in 1989: He basically complained about all the bugs and usability problems with it for 90% of the review. But then: "The game of the month is clearly Anacreon; despite its problems, it's playable and the flavor is good, much like Beam Piper's old Space Viking series. Also, the author is busily fixing bugs even as I write this. (I called him a few minutes ago and read him what I've said.)"
