&gt; <i>Remembering &#x27;Portal,&#x27; Activision&#x27;s...</i><p>Aside: After programming, I can not bring myself to place separating punctuation inside quotation marks. It seems entirely wrong to place characters within the quotation when they clearly come from without.

&gt; Using a rather Windows-like, icon-based interface (impressive in the mid-80s), you moved a cursor around the screen to select from database categories like Geographical, History, Medical, Military, PsiLink, and SciTech.<p>From the screen shots, it looks like the game uses the normal Amiga graphical interface. I wonder if the author even knows what an Amiga was, or maybe he knows about games on the Amiga, but he doesn&#x27;t realize that applications on the Amiga used a GUI.

Would love to experience it myself. What&#x27;s the best way to play it now - dosbox?
