This game was released for IBM Personal Computers and compatibles running MS-DOS.

This really awesome game is quite a rare one, and one that I skipped over when doing my reviews of 1984 video games. It is leaps and bounds ahead of its time, using so many graphic tricks to get way more colours and resolution out of the graphics card that came with the IBM PCjr.
What is also amazing is how well it runs when emulating a 1.4MHz CPU.
The game also runs well when emulating a much faster CPU, so the people that made this game really knew their stuff!
