Whenever I used to play this game as a kid I would always go bankrupt in 5 minutes. I now realise it was because the game ran far too fast even on my old PC. Thank god for the ability to reduce cycles in DOSbox.

If you have a PSP, it's available from the playstation network. For me, the game drives me nuts - Theme Hospital had better controls and a better building system.

If you can get the PSP version of this to actually work, no problems, please tell me as the Mrs has it and it always fucks up.
I want to delete it off the PS3, but she's holding out hope that I'll become proficient in how Playstation works so I can fix it and she can play it for 5 mins before forgetting about it.

And Theme Hospital, too, please. That one's *really* bugged.

Dude, that avatar hurts me eyes :o

I would love to review Theme Hospital, but Branjo got in first /rant

Anyway, it's only unprotected in 2013. Feh. :spy:

How to play!?
 

This is probably a dumb question BUT, how to I play this on my MacBook Pro?

You run the game in dosbox.

And before you ask, read this , scroll down forthe Mac dosbox how to.

Thanks!
 

Thank you, is there a game manual out there? I forget how to do some things, lol.

Try Replacementdocs, they might have one.

DOSBox has a Mac version. Alternatively, you can use Boxer which is essentially the same thing, just with a built-in frontend.
Install whichever you chose, then use it to run the game.

Found it

It's for Atari but I think you can get the gist.
