Set in early 20th century Europe, this PC adaptation brings the power struggles of seven mighty nations to life like never before. Its abstracted and simple gameplay puts the focus on the need for shrewd negotiations and overall strategy.

Paradox Interactive has released a playable demo allowing you to try out the interactive tutorial and get familiar with the game.

You can grab the Diplomacy demo (http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=29444) (94mb) over at WorthPlaying.

Wow, I remember playing this game years ago. I second Karmakaze's thoughts, I hope they did a good job getting the strategy of this game adapted to the PC well.

it is fairly well done, the backstabbing could have been worked out better though

Great board game. I played a pc version back in the early 90s that was pretty good. The other versions I have seen have sucked - so here is hoping this one can be good.

OMG the tutorial is a small novel. It's good they assume you don't know how to play, but it also assumes you have the intelligence of a rock and repeat everything 3 times in baby talk.
