Subject: Computer game Classics of the 80's

Written By: shelgin33 on 01/13/05 at 7:06 pm

I am looking for a place to get the vintage computer game "TAIPAN". A sea trader game that really rocks. I have been searchong for it for several years but have not found the game I remember.  I believe the actual year was 1988 but it was the most fun I have had on a computer ever. I just want that feeling back.  Does anybody know where I can get it?

Hiya Shelgin.  :)

If you have a spectrum emulator, go to 'World of Spectrum'.

http://www.worldofspectrum.org/games/t.html

Go into 'Archives' and then go to the 'T' to search through the games. I know Tai-pan is on there.

Good luck.  :)

  Just did a "Google" search using the string "Taipan game download". Came up with many links for an updated Windows version.
