Good, but gets a bit repetitive towards the later levels particularily that wasteland level

The DOS version is the only version that has blood. It also has a soundtrack unique to that version. (all subsequent versions for consoles, handhelds and Macs were different and censored)

There is a Pentium problem with this game's speed. In 1994 it wasn't a big deal since only the rich and daring had Pentium 60/66's when this came out. With that in mind, this is definitely a game strictly for the 486 processor. Other 5th generation CPUs like the K5 and Cyrix5x86 suffer the same problem.

I think it works fine on 386 too, but I have not tested that yet. I can't see why it wouldn't, i mean it doesn't scroll or animate more than 64x64 sprites on top of palette cycling environments.

Apparently the full game can be downloaded for free from Blizzard (a Battle.net account is needed):

This is either a hoax, the game was pulled down again, it's not available in Europe or it requires Starcraft 2/Diablo 3/a WoW subscription.

It's not available on my bnet account.

Actually it turns out that you don't need an account after all:
https://us.battle.net/account/download/?show=classic

Just go there, works fine for me (the site even switches into Russian).
