│ INTRODUCTION │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
TETRIX is the first game ever released by Crocodile Ent. It is a nice VGA
game based on TETRIS, and is fast and very small compared to other games of
its kind.
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ REQUIREMENTS │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
TETRIX requires that you be running MS-DOS v3.1 or higher (or equivalent)
and that your computer is equipped with a Video Array Graphic monitor (VGA)
and a video card that supports the 320x200x256 color video mode. You must
also use an IBM compatible computer with a 80386 CPU or higher. You will need
to have 640k of memory to run the software.
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
