I’m not certain the original had the messages to go along with the scores. Seems they were added in the NES version providing much needed context.

Question for the devs. Are there any plans to add the various federation endings as seen in the NES version of M.U.L.E. ?
0 – 19,999 → “Overall, the colony failed… dismally. The Federation debtors’ prison is your new home!”
20,000 – 39,999 → “Overall, the colony failed… The Federation will no longer send trade ships. You are on your own!”
40,000 – 59,999 → “Overall, the colony survived… barely. You will be living in tents. Few trading ships will come your way!”
60,000 – 79,999 → “Overall, the colony was a success… you have met the minimum standards… but your life will not be easy!”
80,000 – 99,999 → “Overall, the colony succeeded… The Federation is pleased… You will live comfortably!”
100,000 – 119,999 → “Overall, the colony succeeded… extremely well. You can now retire in elegant estates!”
120,000+ → “Overall, the colony delighted the Federation with your exceptional achievement… Your retirement will be luxurious!”
