I played it on my C64. I still have it on my REALLY OLD C64 now. I still load it up and play it with my kids of 6 and 11. :-) Great game. I can't wait until they start beating my old scores. ;-)

It never did work for me either. Even in the olden days ... Maybe becouse my first pc was 486 with vga card? I have found out that it works in dosbox if you select

Code:

machine=cga

and then run the game in cga mode ...

Did anyone find a solution to that freezing problem? Using loadfix, adding even extra mem or anything else doesn't seem to work. Can practise fine but as soon as it comes to competing the thing just locks up

I've been trying to solve that problem too, to no avail. The following at VOGONS is a topic on the issue, however their suggested fix (CGA mode) doesn't make any difference for me (except fewer colours before the lock-up still occurs).

Anyone else had better luck getting this game to run (I assumed it was a DOSbox-caused error, however more and more evidence seems to say that this happens on "pure DOS" machines too... but I'm sure I remember playing this game just fine as a kid on my old 286 machine!)

Yes. The game won't work normaly in DOSBox (I warned about it in the review). You need to download D-fend programe and run DOSBox through it.

D-fend is no longer available on the home site. Would it be possible to upload it here so we can use it?

Thanks!
