[This is for my wife - I certainly would never play games on
 a computer :-) ]

Scarab of Ra seems to occasionally hang when run on a Mac IIcx
with 8-bit color. [Of course the game only runs in B&W].  It
seems to get some sort of a glitch when clicking on the direction
arrows - the arrow stays highlighted, and the machine is hung.
Often a nasty buzzing sound comes out of the speaker.

It also tends to die if you try and run from a saved game.

Does anyone know of an updated version which is Mac IIcx friendly?

Thanks,
Al Lehotsky
