Then again, processors today could probably run it faster using sw emulation anyway Dunno

I do have fond memories of that game.

It's on Steam for $20 if that helps.

I got it from GoG and it used to run good on windows 7. Since I got win 10, I havent tried to dl it, since its on my GoG account. Perhaps they did something to allow compatibility to more modern systems.
