You probably would. I bet you'd use rock all the time, and you see, I've got this natural tendency to always pick scissors. I was born to lose.

Yep, on my 286 with fantastic EGA color monitor. My favorite was the knight, jumping up and down, (Monty Python) as parts of him were sliced off. I don't believe there was full sound, just blips.
Yes, Fred that game was jawsome!!!!

The first time I tried to play it was off the disk, so each move took forever. I didn't make that mistake a second time.
