I am trying to remember a game I never played, but have played the demo.
It is from an online company that the owner posted all his games have gone drm free.
They are less costly type games.
The one I am trying to think of use to be sold at Walmart, Target int he $9.99 Jewel Case section type games.
It is a Space Trading type game. The demo I played it was sort of old fashioned looking and the pop-up text boxes reminded me of DOS windows sort of.
It was main a management type game of buying, selling, moving goods around.
If ti anyone can remember the game or the company it would be greatly appreciated.
One last thought; I think the company name started with a P and was based in the UK, but that is from a faulty memory. :o)
In all seriousness, this will be tricky.

A UK developer starting with P could be Psygnosis, maybe you can find the game in Wikipedia's list.

Can't be, because if I remember correctly that's a Sony exclusive developer and I don't think they made PC games.

How long ago was it released roughly? Last few years, 5-10, early 90s?

Bingo! That is it. Starship Tycoon is the game.
I wish I had made this a question to give you the Rep Points.
Thank you very much

I thought it was probably Positech, but I didn't realize they made Starship Tycoon. Damn.
