Hey all! Trying to find an old text-based DOS game. I played it in 2002, but downloaded it off some freeware/shareware/whatever site that I haven't been able to find since.
The basic premise (that I remember) is that you chose a job, and tried to get promotions...I don't remember how the promotions came about, but I do remember a few details:
There was an acting career...and at least one military career (although I think there was a specific career for each military branch, such as Army, Navy, etc).
Sometimes, a random war would pop up which had some kind of effect...especially for those in the military of course.
The game seemed to be based in England, judging by the British spelling of some words.
It could be multi-player...you chose how many players, named each one, etc.
I know that's not much to go off of...but any thoughts? LIke I said, I'm sure it was text-based and played on DOSbox (or something like it). It's NOT Executive Suite, I've played that one plenty of times.
Thanks!
