So happy to see this on GOG Its a Fantastic Game that i have played over and over for years Title is Incorrect it was Never called Pizza Tycoon Original Name was Pizza Connection USA Version was Fast Food Tycoon 2 I own several discs of this game And will be purchasing this digital GOG version soon Reading about the issues here And my advice is try this When i play this with my original discs I play on an xp sp3 win 7 and win 8.1 And my advice may not work at all for the GOG version But here it is Before i even fire it up i go to Properties in XP Then Setting/Advanced and find "Troubleshoot" Hardware acceleration and i move it to the third bar from left you dont want it on FULL i click apply and exit For win 7 and 8 Right click desktop Click "Personalization" Choose Display from the left panel of the window Click "Change Display Settings" You want the "Troubleshoot" Then Hardware Acceleration This makes the game play for me just like it played on my xp in 2001 I dont know if this will help with the GOG version Sorry to see ppl are not able to enjoy the game
Had to delete the winmm.dll file to get it to play on my old xps xp laptop. Have been playing this game so long that when i began there were not instructions in English Have played cultures 1 every year for 16 years love it. Fighting is actually challenging In Cultures 1 since you must be prepared when attacked and it is my favorite in the series for this Reason. In Cultures 2 while the Graphics and overall game is improved it is less challenging Except for the snake people the very last challenge in the main campaign which is Difficult to beat. In Cultures 1 Must use F2 "funspeedup" cheat to fast foward when needed Havent played Cultures 2 in a couple years but as i recall it has a fast forward feature. Totally Addicted to the first two games never tire of playing them The later 2 versions are very Easy imo especially Northland and more appropriate for children, beginning Gamers, or Cultures fans like myself Came here to get Download Version for my old laptop However if using a disc once installed the Disc is not needed for Cultures 1 If playing Cultures 2 from a retro disc you will need the Disc & a code
