DOS controls

Keyboard and mouse — follow the game’s own controls.

A compatible gamepad can be used after launch.

Use the game's own keyboard and mouse layout

DOS games do not share one reliable control scheme. Check the title screen or in-game help for its assigned keys.

System: Move the pointer over the game screen to reveal the player toolbar, or tap its menu button on touch devices. Use the toolbar for save and load states, fullscreen, and control settings.

Save or load game progress

Favorites bookmark this page; they do not save progress.
