Essential improvements
PCjr
The game is best experienced on an IBM PCjr. It will use a more pleasent colour palette than plain CGA, and will use the PCjr audiochip.
DOSBox
|
Unless you have an IBM PCjr, the easist way is to emulate a PCjr using DOSBox. This can be accomplised by setting machine=pcjr in the DOSBox config file.
|
Tandy 1000
The game came out before the Tandy, and while the Tandy is mostly compatible with the PCjr the game will not support it as such.
Tandy patch [1]
|
A patch to support the IBM PCjr mode on Tandy 1000 machines was created in 2015. This patch also allows the PCjr colour palette on EGA and VGA machines.
