turrican3 · 16 January 2009, 18:41

Raiders doesn't exists on amiga, there is not even a crack of this management software.

Btw, Lankhor has been attacked for plagiarism by a shit company that thought that they could make some money from them.

Only ST for that one.

Well it is a platform game in which you have to eat a lot of Raiders biscuits to win.

Raider being the former name of Twix in most European countries.

More seriously, judging from the article linked in the top post it is a Stock Exchange simulation. They say it is simplified enough to make the game enjoyable for everyone.

With a quick search online, I could not confirm if it was the same in English, but back in the days, in France "raiders" was the name given to those who did heavy speculations, notably to force some takeover bids to succeed or fail.

Ok thanks, at least this scene release is a clear sign of the existence of the Amiga version.
So, "dlfrsilver" its your turn to find the Original.
