War At Home

Anyone got this working on Windows 11? It is an FMV game using an ancient codec which probably wont work in Windows 11...

Without a wrapper it crashes once you select a new game, with a wrapper you get just a black screen an a crosshair.

Can anyone at the very least vertify that the game works on Windows XP

Works in VMware PRO with a Windows XP SP3 vm.

 

@Terje_P, nice game
But rather too difficult for my taste.

Works fine for me on Windows 7 x64.

I did not install the codec from the disk, but the other one, that came with this game I have: Тайна третьей планеты (2003, Windows)

 

Windows 11 dont seem to like that codec... Guess I will stick to a VM then. Checked the telegram channel were the game was uploaded and they also got it working on Windows 7.

A short clip of the game that they made, I guess it gives you unlimited attempts for a reason...

Found a solution:

Hello, this game is old and does not work on new windows
When you install the game, there is a file called run me first, right-click and click run as administrator and let it install and the computer will restart, then you can play. I have Windows 10
You can see it in the start menu. It is not in the directory of the game itself. It is installed with the game.

Info about the game if anyone wants to add it here. No useful pages seems to have been archived on archive.org.
