The game requires a mouse, a VGA card with 256K of memory, and I'd recommend a SoundBlaster 16 for the sweet, sweet sound effects (even though it's not necessary.) In DOSBox, 3000 cycles is enough to get the game to run, but I'd advise you to crank it up a bit (10000 cycles is solid enough.) Sometimes, the game throws random errors in DosBOX 0.74 with unlimited cycles, never seen that happen in 0.72 with 3000 cycles. I don't know what's up with that.
