Galaxy

Galaxy is one of the best strategy based game that was ever available for the DOS platform. This multiplayer game can be played as much as 20 players while competing against each other.
Galaxy works on the ASCII graphics but you would not mind playing it as the concept is amazing. You are from a starship Amada and you need your ships to the other stars to get the useful resources from there.
It is not easy to get the resources as the planets circling those stars may resist your attempt to explore the stars. You will need to create a proper strategy to beat the planets and get your resources. It is up to you whether you want to conquer the star or not. However, there will be 20 people who will be trying to conquer the different stars. The player to conquer the most number of stars will be the winner of this game.
You can change the difficulty level from the settings and you will find three settings there. Make sure to go for the hardest one to get some competition from the planets.
Galaxy has attracted the attention of a lot of gamers with its unique concept. Micro Computer games developed this game in 1981. It was later published by the Avalon Hill games company. You would love this game if you have a big friends circle. Invite your friends or play with the robot player to get the nostalgic feeling of the old era.
