Finally I was able to run this gem in Dosbox v.65 but there is no sound! I tried many configuration but it still does not work.

PS - I know it works in the native XP mode with VDMSound but I would like to get it to work in Dosbox because it appears the mouse is less jerky and it looks less pixelated in DosBox.

Any ideas?

I don't know why there aren't any music nor sounds under DOSBox 0.65 - It sounds fine using VDMSound.

Sorry, no, my confirmation was about the missing sound and music in the game that you reported, in DOSBox. Altering DOSBox settings (sbtype/cycles/mpu401) does not seem to help, so it looks like it is really broken. Maybe one of the devs can look into this issue sometime.

Sorry to bump this thread up. I am really looking forward to play this in Dosbox!

Any insights as to how I might be able to run this with sound? HN has one of the better music out there back in 1990. Thanks in advance!
