Common infos:
- title screen “F1”: check mouse option
there are two speed modes available - USB or PS/2 mouse: 1600 dpi max is recommended
- JiffyDOS should work, but standard C64 is recommended
(Dolphin DOS does not work with the game) - Easyflash alternatives (eg. 1541U2+, FPGA C64):
Cartridge save is usually not fully supported,
so please attach a separate d64-Image for game saves - Flash save has been successfully tested with:
- Easyflash 1 and 3
- VICE emulator 3.x
- Kung-Fu-Flash
- Sidekick64: please use current firmware update

Commodore 64:
- Mouse support was tested with Commodore 1351,
Micromys and Tom2X adapter
Commodore 128:
- C128 VDC: 16kb and 64kb variant works with live map
- C128 + Easyflash/Easyflash3: Turbo mode works
- C128 + Sidekick64: Turbo mode works
- C128 + 1541 Ultimate II+: Turbo mode does not work
(https://github.com/GideonZ/1541ultimate/issues/279) - Turbo Chameleon: Turbo mode does not work
VICE 3.x emulator
- Windows: Screen scaling does not work well with VICE
Windows 11: GTKVice is recommended - set keyboard settings to “Positional”
- set control port II to 1351 mouse
It is still necessary to “Grab mouse events”
keyboard shortcut depends on VICE version (i.e. ALT-Q or ALT-M) - cartridge/IO settings – Easyflash
“Save CRT on detach” should be active - C128 emulation:
dual screen output works, so realtime live map can be used,
turbo mode works
TheC64
- TheC64 (maxi/full scale version): The game runs fine,
slightly slow cartridge access - TheC64 mini: not recommended unfortunately,
slow cartridge access, sporadic stability issues - Firmware 1.6.1 required for mouse controls
https://retrogames.biz/support/thec64/upgrade/ - CJM-file next to the CRT-file required
(the file is provided with the game) - The file-save options are not supported by TheC64,
please use snapshot function for game saves
Ultimate 64
- “C128 Turbo Mode” works
- separate d64-Image for game saves is recommended
MiSTer FPGA
- set Pot options to Mouse
- Turbo mode 2x works
- the C64 core does not support Easyflash saves,
separate d64-Image for game saves is required
