Game data

Save game data location

The game has no save game function, but does keep a high-score table.
System Location
DOS <path-to-game>\REVOFDOH.SCR

In addition the game allows you to create your own levels, which will be saved with the extension .ROD

Configuration file(s) location

System Location
DOS <path-to-game>\DOH.CFG

To reconfigure the game run DOH ? for options. If you want EGA and Adlib, then start the game with DOH E A and it will be saved to the config file. The next time you can start the game by simply typing DOH.

Note that "IBM Music Driver", simply means the PC Speaker.
