music
4 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe music in the game, originally released in the 90s, is reportedly not functioning properly on modern systems due to missing files necessary for compatibility with Windows 7-10. Players have expressed frustration over the lack of sound, indicating that while the music is present in-game, it fails to play. There is a call for assistance from the community to resolve this issue.
“The music and sound are supposed to play in-game, but there's no sound at all. I think it's because it's a DOS game and might be missing a file to work on Windows 7-10.”
“I'm having trouble with the music; it shows as being on in the game, but there's no sound. It seems like a compatibility issue with modern systems.”
“The game has music options, but I can't get any sound to play. It feels like it's not properly supported on newer operating systems.”
