This seems like a decent remake. Glad I finally got the chance to install it and play around with it. My only complaint is about flow/speed/pacing. Even more so when playing single-player. I'm very familiar with the 8-bit original. It could be a little slow at times. But I think this remake is even slower. (As an example, a land auction when nobody had the cash to buy was painfully long. Also the delays on the main screen are uncomfortably long.)

As an aside, the best surprise I had was in the auction logic of the mechatrons. Nice to see them a little more intelligent and a little less easy to game. (Although it seems that I had the ability to game one into selling his resources to the auction house or not, because he wanted to stay ahead of me.)

Keep up the good work.
