I played this so many times its unhealthy already...
this is my favourite game to play while listening to some podcast / video essay on the other monitor.

it features a lot of improvement from its Win95 version.
the native gives you the whole 9 squares if you settle near them (instead of only 3-4 squares)
your border can expand based on liberty bells
the natives gives you settlement of their place once your border reaches them
there's a icon that shows you what item the natives will pay highest price (guns, horses, rum)
and also what knowledge they give you (master farmer, master tobacco planter, master cotton planter etc)

in particular i like that a lot of inter city trade can be automated easily, so that you can collect every resource in one or two cities before selling to Europe/other player

too bad the imba Custom House is gone.

its a good game, but you really need to plan your ♥♥♥♥ if you want to reach independence.. coz your mother country will send ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ or armies once you declared indepdence.
