Several users have reported problems with Hercules on Windows 10. This is a Windows 95 game, so it's not packaged with an emulator. Our tests on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 didn't show any problem, but on Windows 8 and 10 you may receive an error "Hercules is not installed. Run Setup from the CD".

Visitors of GamesNostalgia continue to grow and we have received a lot of requests from Mac users because we haven't prepared the Mac packages for some of the DOS games. Making the Mac packages require some more time but we are happy to announce that 3 of the best games are now available for our Apple fans: the horror point-and-click adventure Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers (that we provide in the CD version with full voiceover), the space exploration game Ascendancy and F-117A Nighthawk Stealth Fighter 2. Have fun!
