Is there any differance between buying this game from the Matrix site as opposed to the Slitherine site?

If you buy direct from Slitherine, a larger portion of the purchase price will end up with the developer, as far as I know. If you buy from us, you get our serialization system which is on all our games and also our support (and if you order the boxed copy a color printed manual).

Regards,

Correct - the game itself is the same.

It is the same game ..

The difference is buying from Slitherine , you are supporting the developer more ..

That is what I did with the intention of showing my support for such a fine game

The only problem is the way Slitherine protect the game

If you install/reinstall more than three times , you will not able to install any more You need to email them for a new code , this really sucks ...

For a record , I bought another copy from Matrix , so that I can install over my laptop , using their serial number system which assure me that in case of anything happen to my laptop , I can reinstall the game without much fuss
