What do you mean? It doesn't work in DOSBox, or don't you know how to get it running in DOSBox?

Well, since this is a Windows 95/Win 3.1 game I doubt it would work in DOS-Box. These are generally the hardest games to run on modern systems. Sorry, I don't have any insights on that.

A Win 3.1 version should run under Win 3.1 under DOSBox 8)

I didn't think of that. I never bothered with that because as far as I heard this often creates more problems than it solves. But, well, I guess it is worth a try.
Google "Windows 3.x" with "Dosbox" and you'll find various guides for that. This for example looks useful.

I've found it to work flawlessly, but the only 3.1 games I've tried with it have been relatively simple ones 8)

Ah, and I assumed this was a DOS game.
