I took a look at it and I was pretty impressed. I downloaded a ROM of it, but I can't get it to work, something to do with my sound system, which is a shame because it looks really interesting.

I tried it today one of my core was heavily used during the game....it must have been a very good game for its time but DW is sooo far ahead in terms of everything making it rather obsolete....however I appreciate the detailed 2D interface like I said it must have been a very good game indeed.

The ROM has never worked in dos box.
If you buy the original cd second hand, you'll find that the full game actually works beautifully under dos box, sound, animations and all that.
