SSG DOS RFTS and Matrix Win RFTS

Post by jopower »

I have the ancient DOS RFTS version 3 by SSG in OEM booklet covers with both 5.25" and 3.5" floppies (256K) no less. Enjoyed it alot back in the day, once I figured out the F key assignments (no mouse allowed!). Last played about 2003 in a DOS box in Win 98se. The original PC speaker sound effects take you back some. And the ol' gal can still beat your ass if you don't watch it!

So, how much of the old game is left in the Matrix version?
Is the update mainly for graphics and scenarios?

Finally, does my version qualify me for the upgrade? [:D]

You know you can't buy if from Matrix anymore?

Didn't play the original game so can't answer you...
