Make sure to use ScummVM to play it! DOSBox is a great way to play a lot of classic PC games but ScummVM is better for any games it supports. This is because ScummVM is a modern engine that runs old adventure games which are written as scripts that run on an interpreter. This beats running an old engine on DOS through DOSBox!
For the game itself I recommend the Internet archive! You can find it as part of the ExoDOS collection or standalone!
I had planned on using ScummVM after seeing a comment about it here but this actually really helps. My search for the game was leading me towards getting it on GoG, but I’m trying my hardest to save money, so this helps a lot.
Don’t get me wrong, I love GOG, but I love the Internet archive and projects like ScummVM and DOSBox (as well as all the console and arcade emulators). These are long-term projects carrying the torch of preservation of all these classic games.

Thank you so much!

After countless Golden Age Hollywood films were lost, I don’t want to see the same thing happen to video games.
