Version differences
- The original retail version is a DOS game and requires the manual to progress.
- The Interplay 10 Year Anthology version lacked a setup program, of which was used to reset the game to the default state whilst optionally keeping characters and their stats, granting the game replayability. See below in Essential improvements for an alternative to said program.
- Digital distribution versions run the DOS version through custom build of DOSBox. This version of DOSBox is used to implement the new, optional features on top of the emulated DOS version. The custom build is open source with link to the source code right in the EULA.
