Versions
Multiple versions of the game exist. Check the title screen or the READ.ME file for the version.
Version 429.05 (also referred to as Ver. 5), released in 1988, is the latest known version.
In addition to multiple bug fixes, this version
- adds support for faster computers such as AT (286) and 386 computers
- adds support for Hercules graphics
- changes copy-protection to a key-disk system, instead of a install/de-install method
Essential improvements
Game fails to start
If the game fails to start when you run GS.COM, simply dropping you back to the DOS prompt, you should try to run the game using LOADFIX. LOADFIX is included with DOS 5.0 or later, and is also included with DOSBox.
