If I could I'd give you a hug! ... or a cheek kiss! hahahaha

anyways, do you think this is the demo version of the game or the real deal?

Yes, hero, it's the full version!!! Eastern Europe just takes a rather long time to open. It's a lot more fun than playing the demo, of course. However, Eastern Europe doesn't have as many cities in the game as Western Europe does. That's kinda... humm... suspicious? not to mention kinda boring. It's a lot coller to open bussiness in Liepāja than in Dijon in a game :P

On an XP machine, I've only been able to get this (brilliant) game working by buying Windows 95 and emulating a virtual Win95 machine in the free VMWare player.

If anyone's got an easier way, I'd love to hear it...

Default Dr. Drago's Madcap Chase

Like the title says, I'm looking for a game that may or may not be based on the movie "Million dollar mystery". What I can remember from the game is this:

It's a turn based game, and the players have cars on a map (I can remember Europe, but can't tell if the map is limited to that continent). The map has cities/destinations/fields you stand on, and dotted lines between them. To move the cars you don't use a dice, but a slot machine (I suppose that is a good clue if anyone has any idea about what game this is). I think you can also get some special cards during the game, that does different things, like allow you to use a different slot machine (to get a higher number and move more spaces etc).

The point of the game is to reach a certain destination first (I assume to get a money reward). After this is reached, the location changes, and so it continues (or it ends and you start again, can't really remember).

I played this game in the 90s, could have been around 93-95. It had colors and decent graphics for that time. I think the version I played was a demo, as it always seemed a bit short or unplayable after running a while. I think it was delivered together with our new CD-ROM station, and it was deffinantly on a CD (probably a CD with a demo on it).

Like I said, from what I seem to remember from the game, it seems like it may be based on "Million dollar mystery". I had completely forgotten the game until I saw "Rat race". In fact, before I figured out about that movie being a remake of "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world" I thought the movie was inspired by the game.

I have spent the last days looking for it, searching all the games on this side, and numberous others, in addition to google searching. So far I haven't found anything. Hopefully somebody here might help

Sounds like Dr. Drago's Madcap Chase.
