System Compatibility:
While the game is optimized for Windows Vista and 7, modern users may encounter issues with display scaling. If the game crashes on startup, right-click the game executable, select Properties, and enable 'Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 7.' Ensure you have at least 2GB of RAM installed.
