-(The domark game) Runs on DOSBox OK. The manual (essential) can be downloaded separately. I did not find it until I put the hyphen in the AV-8b for the search engine. There are two DOS versions of the game, the Super VGA version is the one to use for the slightly better graphics. The manual is the same for both versions.

-(The domark game) I have been setting this up to run on DOSBox and it seems OK. (Not having the game manual is not helpful!) I used to play it, so it's just a case of a bit of trial and error until I get all the keys identified. Especially the need to use the shift key with top number keys or  - & + to adjust the nozzle angle. (Without shift they will adjust throttle).

+Mouse calibration in game is Control + M otherwise you may find your mouse creeping away on its own!
