One of the greatest game soundtracks in history, if you ask me

[@segasys1339]

lol ok bro don't exaggerate.

[@headrockbeats]

I tend to agree. It's definitely better than the remake's soundtrack - and the remake had a pretty good soundtrack!

[@DrewPan]

I concur! It was a good game, but the soundtrack made it unforgettable.

[@Thegamingground]

Oh! Sweet childhood memories :3

[@RNAse]

I've been humming Joe Clark since 1996.

Nostalgie Pur ♥ Ich hab das Spiel früher geliebt als kleiner Junge. Wenn Ich die Musik höre vergesse ich all den Stress.

Vizekönig Beatek. Die undankbare Haltung der Siedler in *Neuengland* macht uns krank. Wir haben daher beschlossen, ihnen mit einem neuen Gesetz Respekt für ihren Monarchen beizubringen. Der Steuersatz erhöht sich um 8% auf 65%. Wenn ihr mögt, dürft ihr nun den Ring an meinem Finger küssen. [ ] Den königlichen Ring küssen [ ] *'Boston Musketen-Party'* abhalten

[@MikeGilroyMusic]

It sounds awesome! I played this game countless times.

[@DOSBoxMom]

I remember downloading the soundtrack to the hard drive of one of my older PCs as a "jukebox" and listening to it while I ironed dress shirts in the basement on Sunday afternoons. It was great listening! And the sound quality playing through your Roland is superior to what I had with the Sound Blaster sound card on my old PC back in the day. Thanks for uploading this!

[@snuffeldjuret]

I listen to the theme music from conquest of paradise a lot when playing this :).

[@DFD1]

I can hear the Civilization I and Railroad Tycoon music in here. And that's a great thing 👌👌

[@stealthhunterjunior4516]

So beautiful 😍

Nice bass on the washington artillary march. Im ready for war!

[@segasys1339]

Anyone else beat the game on the hardest level by capturing every rival colony to stop them from declaring independence before your own colony?

[@agnetha7110]

Sure, the game is very easy if you know all tricks.

[@dewie-der-katzenbock]

Yes, but only with exploiting Save and Loads. I've had fourteen colonies as England (15-20 colonists each around the whole map, everyone experts). The colonies had every needed building at top tier. Stopped Spain (and others) before they destroy any Native settlements (and didn't do it by myself) and declared independence before 1750. Had every founding father and gave other nations no chance to settle down again, while none of their former colonies survived. Surely someone can do better, but that was my best run.

[@segasys1339]

@@dewie-der-katzenbock whatever, I had like 100 dragoons. I could have easily destroyed u.

[@dewie-der-katzenbock]

@@segasys1339 Well, there's no need to be envious as anybody could do it with enough saves and reloads.

[@segasys1339]

@@dewie-der-katzenbock lol I guess but I'm sure he got a higher score than me so I just want my swarms of dragoons to be cooler than his painstakingly manicured colonies.

No Fountain of Youth, Pffff!

[@udo836]

THE FUNTAIN OF YOUTH TRACK IS UNFORGIVABLY MISSING

[@barbarianbros]

As it's not present in the ingame 'jukebox' (pick a tune' I couldn't record it on the SC-55. Now if you have a save file just before the discovering of the fountain, I'd be glad to record the tune on SC-55 and on MT-32.

[@segasys1339]

lol bro you're right, you must have been obsessed with the game.

I could have sworn there was a song called Powhatan's Daughter

[@hosenOne1]

i have the 1995 microprose CD for it ... the games quality is 10x better and the music is much clearer. only problem is in 2020... the only to play it is using a computer that still has windows xp or before lol ... anything else and it wont run

[@Tomekkthegreat]

Ever heard of DOSBOX? Its an emulator that runs DOS and you can "mount" your CD and hard drives in it to access the files there and still play this game :)

[@VorpalRabbit]

You can get it on gog and it works just fine on windows 10. :)

[@michaelweir995]

The game is less than $10 on Steam and runs like a dream but okay.

[@conjoman2469]

...but is it the version of 1994?

[@MrSoundSeeker]

As the Amiga user I find this lack of quality disturbing ;)
