Availability

Source	DRM	Notes	Keys	OS
Retail		CD-ROM versions have full speech. Use DOSBox.
GOG.com		Includes both speech and text versions. Bundled with games 1-6. Pre-packaged with DOSBox.^[2]

The floppy version needs the manual to answer copy protection questions (see keys_3_5.pdf for GOG.com).

Later compilations have the games already combined (the title screen will say World of Xeen).

Combine the two games^{[citation needed]}

Combine the games:
- If neither game is installed, run the Darkside installer and insert the Clouds disks when prompted.
- If only Clouds is installed, install Darkside into the same folder.
- If only Darkside is installed, run the Darkside installer again and insert the Clouds disks when prompted.
- If both games are already installed separately, move XEEN.CC and your saves into Darkside's folder.
Run the game from the new combined folder by typing XEEN.
If everything worked the game will have a new title screen. New games will start in

World of Xeen normally uses the Might and Magic: Clouds of Xeen starting location.

This does not work for the full speech version.

Run without XEEN.CC^[3]
Rename `XEEN.CC` temporarily. Run the game. You will see the Might and Magic: Darkside of Xeen title screen. Make a new save and start the game, then save and quit. Rename `XEEN.CC` back again. You can now start playing World of Xeen in Darkside from that save.

Speech version saves are *.WOX instead of *.SAV.
