Darklands Woe

[THOTH]

Hail fellow abandonware chums :ok:

Great site people, I have decided to 'Finally' join up with the Forums here..My first question is about 'Darklands'. I'm trying to run it on windows XP but I can't for the life of me get it to run, Do I have to use something like DOS box etc..? which I don't really want to do...
I've wanted to play this game for a while...there are scores of people on the net that say it's the best Rpg ever....Better than 'Bloodwych' Pah!!! poppycock...I need to see this with my own eyes..

Any help greatly appreciatted B)

Well, DOSbox is the best program for running these games, since it creates a "PURE" DOS environment. And these games were made for PURE DOS ;)

Thanking you kindly my good man :ok: ....I thought that might be the case, In the compatibility info It say's window's XP though..

I'm off off to download Dos Box...Then eat some cheesy Nachos followed by a big helping of adventuring in Darklands...wah heyyyy, don't you just love Bank holidays :bleh:
