works like a charm!
running well on my windows 11!

i followed the tip by player.
in order to make the facemaker works is just to copy the "WON" folder from C:\Program Files (x86) to C:\Program Files.

make sure to copy the "WON" folder, not the "FaceMaker" folder

I was so psyched to play this.... but despite the tip from player, I couldn't get facemaker to work.... no biggie, i thought. i can still play. then I played word boggle and after time ran out it was frozen. oh well. thanks anyway. Maybe I'll figure out how to fix it.

Confirming in 2023 link is working, plug and play. Windows 10 still runs without need for emulator. Cannot get facemaker to work, which is a shame but doesn't stop the game from running.

Confirming in May 2022 that this link works perfectly.

Windows 10 automatically mounts the ISO file and it works complete with music, character animations, voices, etc. It even seems to work natively in widescreen without stretching, which is pretty surprising given that this game was released in 2001.

The only caveat is that the Fake Maker doesn't work at first but this is easily fixed. All you have to do is copy C:\Program Files (x86)\WON\FaceMaker to C:\Program Files. After that it'll work without issue.
