Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat

Works, but still super difficult!

Hi, purchased this in the weekend for a bit of nostalgia. It works with no issues on Windows 10. Note, first time I installed and launched it I had the error described a lot below of it freezing on the Prepare for Battle screen. However, I pressed Verify Installation on the GOG Galaxy launcher, and restarted, and have had no issues since. On to the game - those of you that played it in the 90s will no doubt remember it being difficult. That hasn't changed. Prepare yourself for replaying each mission 5+ times to complete it with the right luck and minimal casualties. That sort of thing was probably fun when you were 11, but at this stage of life is just time-consuming. The UI has not aged well at all either, but on that front I suspect you know what you're getting yourselves into. For a few dollars and a couple of evenings of nostalgia though, you can't fault this purchase!
