There have been a number of attempts at computer versions of ACQUIRE, and the best of them for the PC is available here for a free download, thanks to the generosity and programming skill of George Crawshay of the UK. It's available as either raw QBasic code (44K) which requires QBasic to run, or as a compiled EXE file (123K) which will run by itself on a PC. If you don't want to modify the code, I recommend the latter. For a change, Mac users aren't left out in the cold here, as there's a version I've been told is very good called "PowerPlayers," and you can download it here. Also, the late Avalon Hill put out a PC-DOS version that's a bit crude, but if you want it, it's here. Thanks to Rick Keller for that one. And thanks to Kevin Worth, here's another PC-DOS version you might like. I have a feeling that the new Hasbro Avalon Hill will be coming out with a computer version of their own before too long.
