What You Need to Play

Introduction and Support Topics

Here's the minimum software and hardware you'll need to play Stars!

Operating System: 

Either Microsoft Windows 3.x, Microsoft Windows NT or Microsoft Windows 95.

Memory requirement: 

4 Mbytes RAM. 8 Mbytes is preferred.

Disk space requirement: 

6 Mbytes for program and help files. 

Video display:

Color displays only, 256 colors recommended.

The higher the resolution the better: use
1024 x 768 (or higher!) if possible.

800 x 600 is the minimum resolution allowing all tiles to be opened. Still very playable.

640 x 480 is playable but cramped: you'll need to close and open tiles as needed.
