Yeah, but it would be nice if the actual website
http://www.princessbridegame.com/
put Tux thereon; all they have is a gray apple and a
multicolored flag. (I guess Apple didn't like the rainbow
apple, and their gray logo does look more corporatelike.
Apple Records, for their part, doesn't take a bite out of
their green logo, but still sued Apple Computer anyway,
apparently because of iTunes. Or just rank stupidity.

)
The good news: the demos are in Flash, and therefore easily
playable on Linux.

Not to be confused with Dirk the Daring, the (IMO rather
dopey) hero of Dragon's Lair. This one's a sidescroller,
and he's dressed in a suit as opposed to a coat of shining
armor.

Linux. Because Windows' Blue Screen Of Death is just
way too frightening to novice users.
