Looking for an old DOS Game... Found. Thanks.

in the late 70's or early 80's, I played a game that I am trying to find again. The general basis is Supply/demand economics. You would select your race (human or various alien) and you would mine for ore, grow wheat and hunt for wombats. Once the cycle was over, you would take your goods and buy/sell. To decide where to mine, you would go and get a soil sample and take it to the surveyors office. You always watched for where meteors were landing and that is where you wanted to mine.

I hope that this is enough info. I am horrible with details. I could probably come up with more details if needed though.

Dune maybe???

Not dune... Not Warcraft...

This is not text based. There is actually basic graphics. I do appreciate your help though.
