Essential improvements

The original game comes on four CD-ROM's. Disk swapping can be avoided if you have multiple CD-ROM drives available by putting the games CD-ROM's in different drives, assuming that each drive will get a separate drive letter.
Use DOSBox |

Notes With DOSBox you can IMGMOUNT each CD-ROM image onto a different virtual CD-ROM drive by adding lines similar to these to your dosbox config: [autoexec] MOUNT C "KMOON" IMGMOUNT D "KMOON/CD/Under_a_Killing_Moon_CD1.iso" -t iso IMGMOUNT E "KMOON/CD/Under_a_Killing_Moon_CD2.iso" -t iso IMGMOUNT F "KMOON/CD/Under_a_Killing_Moon_CD3.iso" -t iso IMGMOUNT G "KMOON/CD/Under_a_Killing_Moon_CD4.iso" -t iso C: CD \KMOON MOON.EXE |
