Bit of a long shot this one but here goes. I'm trying to get hold of game I played on the vic20 back in the day. It was a type in (probably from 'Your Computer' magazine) and involved managing a village's resources while having to deal with bad weather, invasion from other tribes, failing crops etc. The game was a single screen done in PETSCII graphics and had the village on the right with a mountain on the left.
I want to track it down because it's the first large (for the time) program I really studied and altered successfully. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Arthur.

Re: Finding a game
I've just been looking through the copies of 'Your Computer' on the Internet Archive

I don't recall seeing that game but if I come across it I'll let you know.
