This game appears to be incompatible with all current emulators, but it runs on a Mac Plus with System 6.0.8.

I tried System 1, 3.2, and 4.1, 4.2, and 6.0.8 in Mini vMac 3.1.3, and also in the 512k build (mnvm0022-3.2.3), with the same error message. Same result in MESS 0.144 with those OS versions and the Mac Plus ROM. Maybe it was programmed close to the metal of a Mac 128?

IIRC, this game used MacinTalk. It had a text-command interface.

The information on this game is incorrect. It was released in 1986-1987 by Dave Culbertson (this is v.7), so Basilisk II may not be the emulator to use. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to play nice with Mini vMac, either - I've tried running it under every OS from 4.2-7.1, but I immediately get an illegal instruction system error on every attempt. I found an Italian software mag from 1992 that includes a screenshot, but it's so small and low-quality that I hesitate to upload it here. Looks like an interesting game.
