Most games are color-only, regardless of what they say on the box. I only know about a few games. Silent Service runs on mono systems (it has an irritating copy-protection method) Lands of Havok (really boring) runs on mono systems. Someone on the net said that starglider ran on mono systems. I tried to boot a dealer's copy, and got bomb characters. Flight Simulator is reported to say color or mono on the box, but allegedly only works on color systems. The krabat chess game and the puzzle game that I posted only work on mono systems. Much of the European software is like this. Terrell
