In System 6, right after starting the game asks for current boot disk. In Mini vMac, just 'insert' it again and the game works.

Out of luck, because it's b&w only. But you can try the Enhanced version:

wow this sure brings back memories! i was like 10 years old when i got this i think;) is there anyway i can run this on os9? or am i out of luck?
Thanks to share the hints, very interesting ones!
It is possible to run this game on Basilisk II. Only the black and white version works, though.
1. Set your basilisk's screen resolution to 512 x 342.
2. Set the display's color depth to 1bit (black and white).
3. use Windows GDI instead of direct-x.
** only the SQ1 B/W version works, 16 color version still does not work.
Also, when you're playing make sure to move the mouse cursors aside in the menu area since having the cursor in the game area glitches the screen.
