I play the game in windowed mode (to can play it while i'm drawing some illustration at same time). Usually to play games in windowed mode reduces some incompatibilities with modern systems and modern graphic cards.
Actually i'm playing it in Windows 10 and works fine, except the music of course. It is wonderful turn based game, challenging and it has great vibes of classic games like Incubation. Hope more people can enjoy it.
Cheers!
