Harpoon was one of the games that consistently got 5 stars, 100 rubber points, a bouquet of flowers ... you know ... in game magazines from 1989 to 1993. And rightly so. Released for MS-DOS, the Mac and the Amiga, the game is a realistic naval battle simulation developed by former naval officer Larry Bond.

The story behind the game is mega interesting, and RetroViator has taken on the subject in detail. In his already a few days old article on Harpoon you’ll find lots of historical details about the game.

The necessary reading time is very well spent.
