Lords of Chaos Lords of Chaos is a turn-based tactics video game, the sequel to Chaos and an ancestor of the popular X-COM series of games. As with the other games, it was written by Julian Gollop. In the game, each player controls a wizard who can cast various magic spells. The spells have various effects, for example summoning other creatures, which the player also controls or damaging opposing creatures and wizards. The game can be played against a computer-controlled opponent or by up to four human players, and was released on both 8-bit and 16-bit platforms. The 8-bit versions (for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64 and Amstrad CPC) were released in April 1990, with the 16-bit versions (Atari ST and Commodore Amiga) following in August 1991. The prices were £9.95 for the Spectrum/Commodore 64/Amstrad CPC tape, £19.95 for the Atari ST disk and £24.95 for the Commodore Amiga disk. An IBM PC version was scheduled for release but never emerged. [source:wikipedia]
