This is the SDL port that was released as freeware in 2009 and is still free on Steam. The original DOS version with multiplayer (modem/IPX) is still owned by Apogee (AFAIK).

Note: This uses the new SaveAs attribute because it is impossible to execute otherwise (and we can't apply the workaround to the URL).

Just to understand: why can't we apply stasm url workaround? Is it because we didn't create the archive URL?

That's the most up to date working archived URL? ( Nothing working past year 2009?)

Around 2011 you get the site for the iOS version of the game (this version is not a port, it is pretty much a new game).

Correct, if we change the URL, archive.org cannot find the file since it was never saved with the changed URL.
