Oids

1001 Video Games

Oids appears in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die by General Editor Tony Mott.

Emulation

For a long time none of the standard ST emulators ran it successfully due to its exact hardware routines, so one called Oidemu was written which can run it - and virtually no other games.
