Additional Description

Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

This disc contains interactive software, including executable game demos and an ActiveX-based interface. This content cannot be displayed in our library platform.

As a surrogate for the interactive elements of this CD, we have uploaded a screenshot gallery to our digital archive showcasing all the content from the interactive website. The raw files from the website are also available. However, the game demos and executable files have been removed from the browsable CD directory.

Due to a minor technical issue, a manifest file could not be generated for this disc at the time of accession. A manifest file will be generated once the error is corrected in the Curator software used by VGHF.
