Hi. You can get fallthrough at http://www.classicgaming.com/ascii/
the only problem I found with the game was a lot of pausing and slowing down. apparently this is common when running dos aps with windows, but did make the game rather unplayable for me, which was a shame sinse it looked great. Are you running it with dosbox or something similar zak? or just through windows? In fact, any advice on playing this game would be appreciated. Beware the fall Grue!
