Other notes:
Known versions are compiled from v1.08 and v1.27 documentation - it is unknown if any versions exist between v1.08 and v1.13. v1.14 does not appear to have existed.

All releases from v1.20 require DDEML.DLL to run in Windows 3.0.

All releases from v1.13 crash with an immediate General Protection Fault with HERCULES.DRV.

Hercules, VGA Monochrome and EGA all have glitchy rendering where it leaves a "ghost trail" of previous renders, which are cleared when a puzzle has started. In addition, all versions before v1.20 have glitchy rendering for displaying the co-ordinates, azimuth and inclination.
