hi guys,
I was unable play this pretty old game using DOSBox 0.63. I only manage to load up to the "preload screen" written "Detachment of limited line service" and dang!, error, dosbox auto shutdown.

this game is pretty old (but certainly created after 1990s). its originally a Japanese game but for this version, its translated to chinese. I doubt that there's any form of corruption becos it was installed from a game cd around 8 yrs ago. I've play this game before, it works in dos when im using win 95 (i do not know the MSDOS version at tat time) long long time ago.

The game can downloaded at the link below.

I have not tried installing win 98 yet to play this game cos so far, DOSbox has been working very well for my old favorites and i believe that it can save me some trouble again 😜

Mount some directory (an arbitrary worked for me) with
cdrom support (e.g. mount k c:\games -t cdrom).
Then start the game with play.bat
Let me know if it works, at least the chinese signs/radicals
whatever are displayed (and you can click through them).
