Runs fine in dosbox 0.72.


If you want to run the original, plenty ZX emus around.
Yes, i saw that one also but it is not like the original blue max made for commodore. the view is not the same and the game-play changed also. thanks anyway

Well, if anyone is interested, I did a little search on the internet and found this two interesting links:

Here you can play the original Blue Max for commodore directly online

Here you can get a remake of Blue Max with completely new graphics (so it does not look like a remake but the game-play is the same and also uses simplistic controls, anyway it looks very nice)

Do you know if there is any version for DosBox or any remake of this game?
It was? Cool. I wasn't sure, since you were talking about avoiding civilian buildings, and I pretty much just bombed everything in the game :amused:

I played BM on my Atari XE back in the day (which I still have). Not as pretty or as nice sounding as the C64 version, but it plays well. Other than what dosraider posted, there aren't too many entries for the series. There is however, a Blue Max 2001 for the C64 and Atari 8bit, which is a futuristic take on the same basic idea.
