- According to the "Installation and Instructions" card, p, 2:
-
- "Darklands requires at least a 12 MHz 80286 ("AT") IBM-compatible computer.
- An 80386 or better, running at 20 MHz or faster, is strongly
- recommended.
-
- It requires 595,000 bytes (581 K) of free RAM, and 64K of EMS.
-
- It requires about 17,500,000 bytes of disk space, including temporary
- files and some saved games.
-
- It requires VGA w/ 256 colors.
-
- It requires a mouse.
-
- Good luck!
