Well, it is a game that's more than 15 years old, so that alone tells a lot. The chances of finding an unused copy is nil. Garage sales, flea markets, video game stores that sell used games, that's pretty much it.|ZiR| said:The PC, CD-rom version. How rare is it, and what're the odds of finding a copy in a shop today?
The answer to that question is a technical yes, as you practically need an emulating program called ScummVM to run the game properly on modern PCs. As a note of interest, it also lets one run the regular PC FoA meant for DOS not only in Windows, but in other setups, like Macs and Linux or Solaris systems as well.|ZiR| said:Or barring that, and this shouldn't be against the rules as I'm not asking for linkage, does a emulated version of FoA exist?
The original PC DOS version is the way to go, thanks to ScummVM. No need to mess around with anything else. Now you just have to find the game, which isn't that hard... apart from the method Clinton above mentioned, even the regular search engines might find one straight off the web, but on that field you're on your own thanks to the board rules.|ZiR| said:Though, I've actually found a ROM of FoA and a C64 emulator (WinVICE), but despite my tinkering with it for the past 2+ hours I still can't get it to work. Which is probably due more to my own stupidity than anything else.
