The idea was so popular that back in the days of yore (circa 1987 AD) the original Sid Meier's Pirates! was offered to the general public to widespread "huzzahs!" All your buccaneering dreams were now right there in front of you in glittering monochrome!
The Sid Meier label carried a lot of cache in those days, and to this day, because of this designer's innovations in simulations. The game featured one of the earliest "sandbox" styles of play-you could pretty much do whatever you wanted within the confines of this virtual world, which was itself changing all the time, in ways both influenced by and independent from your actions. Time passed in an internally consistent fashion, and your success in the game depended in many ways on monitoring and dealing with factors that changed over time-your crew's morale, the rise and fall of prices, and your own character's inevitable aging. Most importantly, it was as much fun as you could have in those primitive times, because you also got to fight a lot.
