Played this when it first came out on the PC way back when. It was one of my first RPG's to be had on a PC.

I noticed the comment that it runs a bit slow on a 1.2Ghz system. I am running this here on my PB 1Ghz Titanium. I will admit the sound is a bit choppy, but otherwise the performance is not all that different from the original ver. * Tested it will all options set to the maximum settings". For me at least.

Thanks for making it easy to play and relive the memmory of this game.

Awesome. I have been fighting to get BaK working on various incarnations of VPC virtual machines and a real Windows XP box (a surprisingly difficult matter, due to the antiquated BaK memory management mechanism).

Unfortunately, DOSBox + BaK runs terribly on my 1.25 Ghz Powerbook. Most notably, music skips wildly. Surprising, considering that even given emulation performance penalities, a G4 in the gigahertz range should have been able to handle a game designed for a Pentium 166 Mhz. Perhaps there's something else going on besides raw processor speed.

Wish I had a nice quad-core G5 to test this out on.
