Another really good one, also becoming a classic in my opinion.
I'm glad it's on Abandonia!

A bit of choppiness among some sounds, but the music is excellent. Good graphics, nice usage of humor. As the review claimed, the menu IS irritating. Still, this is a good game!

May I make a note: Big Red Adventure has always been a bitch to get running. Even in real DOS mode, you often have problems with the mouse cursor being invisible and other graphical issues. Since the latest DOSBOX version, this has been fixed.

Note however that this is the RIPPED version of Big Red Adventure. I'd love to get my hands on the full thing, but it's damn near impossible to find.

Hi all, ()V

How to run this game in DosBox 0.65 using Dfend V2B2?

I have run setup (SB, ADLIB, Recognize VGA card, English) and done.

Then I run TBRA.bat which opens a window with dos commands and thats it, no game.

I have tried ADV.EXE and got the game running, but with NO mouse and NOT in English.

Please help me on this one, and thanks a Million.

Ken.
email me on (kenshiro_2kDon't post your e-mail adress in open like that. Spambots can get wind of it and start flooding it with various junk.

Let me guess you downloaded the HOTU version? Get the one on this site instead.
