"The CGA version is... well... monochrome really. If you've got EGA you are treated to a bit of colour in the maps. To be honest though, it doesn't make a hello of a lot of difference either way. If you have a mouse installed you can use it to select the menu options, but the cursor keys are quick enough. Not the most excting game of 1989, but very absorbing - and at this price yo can't go wrong!" - ACE magazine

There is a major bug in all ports of Conflict such that if the player is doing particularly well, the game often hangs in the final turn.

There appears to be a bug of some sort with regard to the defense budget; if the game lasts a long time, the defense budget eventually, one year, is set to 0% instead of the normal 35%. The budget can still be increased by 2% per year as normal, but as one might expect, the actual monetary value of the budget is then uselessly low.
