Comments
Runs OK on a Power Macintosh 7500/100 (100 MHz PowerPC 601) running Mac OS 8.6 as a minimum requirement for me playing it, but you will need CarbonLib 1.6 in order for the game to function properly. Performance will be greatly improved with the use of a PowerPC G3 or faster, but a 100 MHz PowerPC 601 would definitely be a minimum requirement for this game, but set the game speed to fast in the options screen even when using the 100 MHz 601 processors, since the card animations tend to be a little sluggish on that particular CPU speed though. Another note: QuickTime 4.1.2 will not display the Freeverse Software animation correctly so QuickTime 5.0.2 is required to play both the video and audio of the Freeverse Software animation as another minimum requirement for this game.
