The PC version of this game used MIDI music, and they tried to make it sound as good as possible for the time. On a typical sound card, it was OK. However, it also supported the Roland MT-32. A friend let me borrow his MT-32 so I could hear what the game's music was actually supposed to sound like. Very impressive!
