So the game it self is fine, my problem is with the fact that this game did nothing to update to modern hardware. Here are all the issues I found It doesn't have an icon for the shortcut on your desktop leaving it as the default blank piece of paper. The full screen stretches the image and there is no option to choose what monitor size you'd like. If you have 2 monitors and want to play full screen it will boot...

Plays just like it did way back when. Such a fun retro game to enjoy and pass the time.

Might be biased - it's a staple childhood game for me. Loved playing it again after a 10 yr break. Nothing too spectacular compared to today's masterpieces, but it still has a special place in my heart. Great simulation game that requires patience in comparison to our daily brainrot content consumption in the big 2026.

Its a fun game, super simple game play. I do wish here were more end game things to do. Once you solve all the puzzles theres nothing else to do
