Gameplay

[edit]

Rules of Engagement is a game of tactical starship combat in which players control a flagship and give orders to ships of its fleet.[1]

Reception

[edit]

Charles A. Smith reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "For this reviewer, Rules of Engagement is elegant. There are no gee-whiz 256-color images. Instead, graphic designer Maurice Molyneaux and programmer Thomas Carbone opted for austerity and functionality to transform one's machine into a computer with deadly potential fitting snugly into the game's fiction."[1]

Sequel

[edit]

In 1993 there was a sequel published by Impressions Inc. titled Rules of Engagement 2.
