Hey, thanks for your help... but I'm only able to play the game for about 30 seconds before the mouse changes and the game crashes. On DosBox, they've stated that the game is runable, but not playable, and someone confirms the crash within the first minute. How did you get it to work, might I ask?
The same for me, no more than 30 seconds!
Hi which site did you download the game from?
Best,
Glenn
Its asking for word 5 on page 5 before I can play. Where can I download a manual so I can do this?
