Yes, you start out in a holding camp with about 6 others, then you get sent to other camps where there are greater numbers of fellow 'kriegies'... Colditz among them.

A great concept as you say, and I'd love to see a newer version with better graphics, although these are solid and pretty soon it all seems real enough.

It's got all the trappings of a good PoW yarn too... tunnels, diguises, scrounging and also the Colditz glider which you help to build.

EDIT: Been a while since I played last and I've just begun a new game to find that there are indeed only 2 other prisoners in the holding camp, one of which tells you that the others were bussed out the previous week.

You are time-limited by the simple necessity that you are present at the next roll-call, otherwise a camp-wide search is instigated. This is all part of the fun, though
