Patrick J. for this information!)

opinion before you download? Take a look at this review at the Home of the

STEP 1 - Download the latest
version (depending on your browser, you may have to right-click and
choose "Save Link Target As...")
Note: I've removed support for my java 1.3 version. You
will need to upgrade your java version to at least 1.4 to get this to
work. STEP 2 - Unzip the archive you download into a new folder, and
read the readme.txt file. Double-click the jar
file to play the game.
Mac OS X comes Java-ready, so you should be ready to go. If you
are running on Windows, you may have to get Java 1.4.2 JRE
(at the least) for this to work. If you double-click the jar file
that you download, and nothing happens (or you get an error), then you
probably need to get Java.
STEP 3 - Play the game and
enjoy.
