The original game was 16 bit and won't run on modern systems. It had to be remade. If you want the real thing you'll need a VM running XP.

    64-bit machines are not able to run 8-bit and 16-bit code while 64-bit mode is active. You can install a 32-bit OS, where this works, but if you want the advantage of 64 bits, you lose those very old (DOS and pre-DOS) programs.
