I predict this will be a constant problem as we have small number of functioning computers and a given CD will only play on one computer at a time. Here are a couple of configurations that may work if you are in a position to supervise:

* Have one child have complete control of the game for a certain amount of time (to be agreed upon by all people involved), then switch players when the first child's time is up.

* Have one child give all of the orders while the other child actually carries them out with the mouse and keyboard. They too might switch places after a certain amount of time or after every section of the game.
