I cropped this out of an old photo, it's a map that came with an old game. I'm trying to remember what the game is. Any ideas?

I had this game on either the Amiga or PC.

About what timeframe are we talking about? What type of games did you play, if it was your game?
It looks like some strategy map, but not a map from Earth I think.
Sometimes these were used ingame as references/copy-protection items, if so it could be something linked with an RPG too.
There seems to be a white trapezoid logo in the top right corner, I don't recognize it myself, but maybe it's a publisher logo?

The photo was taken in the late 90's, but I remember at this time I was also playing Frontier Elite 2 (released 1993) and Millennium (released 1989), I played old games even then so it'l likely not a game that was released in the late 90's

I was still playing on my Amiga then, which is why it could be on that system. I'm certain it was a strategy game, likely a resource management game like millennium even though I can't remember anything at all about the game. I remember playing this game right after I played millennium.

I wish there was a site that had all the old game maps and stuff like that so I could just browse through them all. I've used google images with search terms like "retro game paper map" but I never found this one. I'll try and see if I can find any logos that look like the one on the map.
