Not sure, but I know you need a CD32 Joypad to play it (and a CD32 Emulator I believe).

Clebin --> Glad you remember it too, what a great version it was, much improved. Shame you haven't got it either.

To add to Clebins point you will know you have the 1200 version if it loads on an A1200 with just the disks, The original A500 version just crashes.

I think the game works fine with just a joystick as it only uses one button?  :confused:

I have never heard of the AGA fixed version before. What's the difference? This is interesting...

Amiga Format couldn't get it to work either, apparently it needs every last byte of chipmem when booting.

I am sure there was a cracked copy of the CD32 version on floppy, and it wasn't the only game from CD32 put on disk among all the pirate games on the market stall.

Really? So how did they get past the "cd quality" music and sound? Too big for floppies i reckon...   :confused:

Also how many floppies would the trilogy use up? I know that Lotus 3 used 3 so I'm guessing 5 or 6?
