  Awwsome!! Was gonna buy the Apogee collection off Steam during the upcoming sale, but already have half the titles. This was the main one I wanted that I was missing… and "free" trumps US$10 any day!!

  If I could upvote this again, I would. :-D

    Cool! I used to dream of EGA graphics. CGA had four colours [except in Hi-res mode, Google "Alleycat]- Groan, Puke, Rot and Bleergh.

        Weren't :-P. That was Hi-rez, which was 640x480! As for EGA, text was a lot better in EGA text mode than VGA, it's just that VGA offered 256 colours versus 16…

    It can display of 16 simultaneous colors from a palette of 64 at a resolution of up to 640×350 pixels!!! That's 4x better than my CGA monitor!

    haha… EGA was bee's knees back in the 286 days for sure. Playing Sierra games on EGA graphics was cool.. hehe.. But I had to content with my CGA being a poor kid at the time.

      I had VGA on my Amstrad 8086 XT.

        I dont remember Amstrad ever making XT's / 8086. Their oldest models were the 286 and 386's..

        Your parents must be really loaded! I had CGA on my 8088 XT and my dad said it was very expensive.

        There were plenty of 8086 models.

        @zealmax: Oh OK… My memory failed me.. I had a CPC6128 at the time and upgraded to a no name XT. Should have gotten an Amiga instead back then and life would have been very different..

  Ah, bio menace brings back memories… Nah just kidding, I was still shitting my pants when this came out.

  Cool freebie though.

  I remember playing the shareware version of this game on my on 386.. oh man those were the days! The best thing about that game is it never ended for me, I don't know if it was a glitch, part of the game or sheer luck… but when I got to he end of the game it somehow went to the next chapter… I didn't even have it! but it still let me play on like it was the fullversion.. WHICH BLEW MY FREAKING MIND!

  how was this sorcery conducted?

  either way I put lots of hours in this :D

  just wondering, does GOG have a leanback on the couch experience like Steam Big Picture mode?
