Rating TBD

Reading reviews and have question before I buy…. Can you play online? I used to connect through Red Orb Zone, then direct to IP. But IP got wonky with newer versions of Windows and was stuck with PBEM, play by email. Best game ever.

Sigh....

I was so excited. I played this game as a child and always wanted it to come to GOG. I was skeptical that it would work, but was hopeful that a GOG release would have at least allowed the game to run. My first game ran for 2-3 minutes and each game since has crashed within a minute. The game does not run for me.
