Reception
[edit]Dennis Owens in Computer Gaming World stated of First Expedition, "Not recommended for adventure gamers unless they are interested in intricate navigational techniques".[1] Jerry Pournelle said in BYTE that it "manages faithfully to simulate all the long boring aspects of sailing ...
