"The Adventures of Microman" is such a nostalgic little platformer, seen it on many compilations back in the day, this is the shareware version (only includes the first chapter "Crazy Computers" ver 1.5), this is not a DOS game but a Windows 3.1 title which means to get it to work you have to download Win 3.1 emulator (or running 3.1 through DOSBox), or VM running windows 95 (since it's supports DOS and WIN 3.1 games). i played this version 1.5 and 2.0 version. the only differences is the 2.0 has better compatibility, it's supports both 16 and 32 bit, and runs smoothly, however they changed tue voices, in the 1.5 they have this more 1960/70's cheesy but memorable robotic voices and ones of the robots lines is "YOU WILL DIE!" and when you pick up an item a crowd of people saying out loud you what item you have picked up. in 2.0 registered version they changed the cheesy robotic voices for a deep booming echoey voice for everything inclusing the robots, the main character and for collecting items. They even changed the "you will die!" line from the robots to "you will fall!" which sound more tame, but it’s a nitpick. it did got a seconed chapter "Savage Stones" (also known as Microman 2) which came out in 1999, but it's not the easiest game to find online i did finally found it but it took some digging. a third chapter was planned called "Wild Waters" or Microman 3, but it got scrapped after chapter 2 for some reason.

When I try to run it in DOSbox it says "This game requires Microsoft Windows" But it won't work in Windows. Help!

I played this off of a game disk called Game Empire, if anyone remembers that.

Does this work on DOSbox? I tried to open it like any other game and it said: "this program requires Microsoft Windows" But it doesn't work on Windows either... Please help!

I remember playing this game in middle school on the old computer they had. I downloaded this game and Dosbox wouldn't play it for some reason.
