TradeWars 2002

TradeWars, the first multiplayer space trader, has been cited as an influence in the design of many sci-fi games, including Jumpgate, the X series, Earth and Beyond and Star Citizen.  It is often credited as an early predecessor of Eve Online, Pardus and Mankind. Because of this influence, it was named the 10th best PC game ever by PC World magazine. For more information, visit the TradeWars Museum.
