I use an external CD Drive to play some disc games on my Win 10 computer - as it didn’t come with a “built in” one.

But I can play some really old disc games that way as I get an on-screen message telling me that some necessary files - to enable installation - can be garnered from past Windows Updates during the process.

At this time, many years later, I'm not even sure what I meant by that. lol

Example: Death on the Nile downloaded perfectly, and played well on my Windows 11 machine. Peril at End House, from the same series, wouldn't downlad at all. Conclusion: If you can download it, it will likely play on a modern machine.


For whom the games toll.
They toll for thee.
