Could dig up some of those materials - I believe I still have the old gaming mags that wrote about the game.

When it came out, it was a major flop, several years behind in terms of design and graphics when compared to the strategy games of its time.

Wow... I wonder how many of the CD's were produced. Is it rare or anything? Is there more info behind the game? Why V.O.T.E.R.? For water?

It appears that the company is gone and the game is't sold anywhere is it Abandoned?

If the game is really vaporware and that the best you can find is a preview of the game in gaming magazines instead of reviews, chances are that you'll never find a working copy simply because sadly it doesn't exist...

So it is out there somewhere.
and probably fine to upload it.

Wait... so what the hell am I looking at, then?
It has installer and all missions. nothing missing.
Is it legal to upload it or anything?

Box scans, anyone?

Well then it's not vaporware.

It's plainly written 2004 on the box, so it doesn't fall under our 10 years rule...

This game actualy look interesting. There is no such things as a RTS/Adventure game. Those two genres completely clash together and can't mix.

Ok then... let's wait till' 2014.

I'd rather say it's TBS/RTS rather than RTS/adventure.

[_r.u.s.s.]

Because the game creators thought it sounded nice. Then they dropped it because they could not produce a sensible backronym out of it.

Multiple sources confirm 14th May 2001 as the original release date.

Also, I've found out that the publisher has apparently changed its name rather than close up - for a dumb one, too: http://www.eeezee-products.com/
