Gameplay
Amoeba Wars is a science fiction game in which players must take control of Saestor, the former capital of the empire.[1]
Reception
Eric Goldberg reviewed Amoeba Wars in Ares Magazine #9 and commented that "As an investment, Amoeba Wars is a good risk, whether or not the reader groans and pardons the pun."[2]
David Ladyman reviewed Amoeba Wars in The Space Gamer No. 42.[1] Ladyman commented that "In general, I found the game uninteresting, but I can't necessarily say the same for you. I detect undercurrents of Risk and Cosmic Encounter in Amoeba Wars. Some of you will like the game, some won't."[1]
