Now we're talking. I enjoyed "Nostradamus: The Last Prophecy" a lot. But this is an old game, and only works best on XP. On Windows 7 and beyond, you have to switch to windowed mode to avoid video artifacts.

Funny how the specs say: OS: Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8

Like you say, it likely has issues on new OS'.
