Description
Type "Dir" to view the files available. One of the files ending in .EXE or .COM or .BAT will start the game. It is not necessary to type the extension of the file. For example: INDY.EXE would become "indy" and then you press enter to start the game. Check for README or SETUP as well, if you are having trouble. Files ending in .TXT can be opened in windows easily, or through dosbox with "TYPE README.TXT" or whatever your file is called. In this case, you do need the extension ".TXT" just typing "type readme" wouldn′t work if the full file name is "readme.txt"
Wow, I cant believe this game is on here. This game came free with one of my first computers. Ive tried finding it years ago but no one has heard of it. From what i remember this game was cool.
