I'm pretty sure it's the Windows version. I bought the cd a long time ago, and it sayis it's for Windows/MPC. I can try to run it in DosBox, but I don't know if it's made for it.

I think it's something to do with the Fonts that come with it. I tried to manually install the different fonts in the official font folder, and some said they were already installed, others weren't. There's no way to uninstall the game without just deleting the folder, and when I tried to reinstall it, it had a real problems with "can not open type.font'. It's really annoying, since I really want to play it.

EDIT: Well, at least I've got it semi-working now. Everytime I press a new option, the text changes color, so at least I can see it. I can't load a saved game at the beginning, since I can't see any of the text, but I just press around on the screen where I know it should be, and then I start a new game. So it's playable, although without a save function, I can't get very far. But for a taste of my childhood, it's still nice.

Any suggestions for the changing color text are welcome, though.
