[Coco] Robot Odyssey on PC

[Glen VanDenBiggelaar]

Hi, Chester,
I recoment to try a program called "DosBox" and run the game through that. 
It seems to corect the timing and emulate an older computer. Its freeware 
and just do a Google search. I use it to play the Kings quest and Lesuir 
suit Larry games and it seems to work great, once you figure (remember) your 
DOS commands and things like How to mound drives etc.
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net
Hope this helps a bit
