There is only one file in the game archive that is downloaded. That file (STATIONF.DAT) can be opened and played using the Winfrotz Interpreter. Winfrotz will manage your saved games and allow you to customize the interface to your greater comfort. It can be downloaded from the “Programs” section of the Abandonia website.

All the game extras are downloadable as discussed in the review under the "about the extras" section. All forms, maps and blueprints can be downloaded from the extras section on the game page.

Default Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you

First of all, this is awesome. :nuts: Thanks for posting.

Second, is there any way to run this in DosBox? I've got it working in the z-machine, but it just doesn't feel the same as the old Dos layout. If there's any way to change it, let me know, otherwise it's no big deal.

All you need to run this game in DOSBox is a DOS-based Frotz interpreter. You can find one here:

I remember when this first came out! I reviewed it for a local radio station. It was one of the Infocom games I most enjoyed, because it put a premium on individual perceptions and words. Interpreting what was said by each of the robots was a challenge and great fun. Thanks for putting it up, again.

The spoken word: Shakespeare - or Infocom?

.... I have yet to decide!

Borodin,

Are you sure you aren't thinking of the game Suspended instead of Stationfall?
