Ooh, this is the super-rare "pink cover" edition. Might be worth a fortune!
... or the lighting in the Tanga office is weird. One or the other.
This game was reviewed in the Winter 2008 issue of Gamers Alliance Report. You can find the review here:

[4] - Given that the Rio Grande logo is still blue, this raises an interesting question of *why* it's pink.. It could be that the printing process for the box art is different from a stamped-on logo, and the printer ran out of Cyan ink... That or it's simply the little-known Breast Cancer Awareness edition.
OMG PLEASE I REALLY WANT THIS. PLEASE NO ONE PICK THE NUMBER "1". PLEASE!!!!!! HELP MAKE MY DREAM COME TRUE. EVER SINCE I WAS A LITTLE CHILD GROWING UP IN THE SLUMS OF THE THIRD WORLD, I ALWAYS DREAMED THAT ONE DAY I WOULD BE ABLE TO PLAY RACE FOR THE GALAXY. MY MOTHER, WITH HER LAST BREATH OF LIFE AS SHE SUCCUMBED TO THE RAVAGES OF POLIO, TUBERCULOSIS, AND MALNUTRITION, SAID TO ME "HAVE HOPE MY CHILD, FOR FATE SMILES KINDLY UPON THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN SO MUCH. I BELIEVE THAT ONE DAY YOU SHALL BECOME THE GREATEST 'RACE FOR THE GALAXY' PLAYER THIS WORLD..... HAS.... EVER........SE......................................." PLEASE MAKE MY DREAM COME TRUE, AND LET ME BE THE LOWEST BIDDER. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING AND GOD BLESS.
Got to start picking number in the 100-200 range.
