First - what are your computer specs?

Second - how many cycles are you running at?

Third - run dosbox in the 'dynamic core' instead of normal. (Change in the dosbox.conf)

Well I don't have this game perse, but I did checkup on Mobygames. An adventure game from 96, sounds like it will require quite a bit more cycles.

To change settings like cycles and the core, open up the dosbox.conf in your dosbox directory using notepad.

Could you give me a little more info - is this a cd game? If so I would suggest trying out 15000-25000 cycles with dynamic core. Set these in your dosbox.conf:

core=dynamic
cycles=25000

That might help you out. If not come back and let me know. I'm not sure, but judging by your CPU you can handle that amount of cycles 😀

No prob. I think the biggest issue with telling people to raise cycles, is that they aren't sure how high is "high" and what is a reasonable amount. 😁

Nice to know its working.
