* FW is completable (albeit currently only if the copy protection is activated), OS is not.
 
* There are a couple of known glitches in FW:
[[Future Wars]] used the first version of the engine, called '''Cinématique'''.
** Sprites are often not masked properly.
 
** In some places, restoring a savegame does not properly restore all the graphics. The first example of this is the office when the map is shown.
For [[Operation Stealth]], the engine was slightly modified (some new opcodes and new files were introduced), this was the first evolution of the engine ('''Cinématique Évolution 1''').
** When opening the secret passage early in the game, the "hero" sprite is drawn in the upper left corner.
 
** Menu colors are wrong during the intro. Possibly in other places as well.
For [[Cruise for a Corpse]], the engine has been largely modified and didn't have much in common with the initial version (only the resource loading/unpacking and music/sound routines have been re-used). This was the second evolution of the engine ('''Cinématique Évolution 2''').
* The INVENTORY command is not implemented.
* The savegame user interface is incomplete. Savegames cannot be named.
* OS exists in 2 version: a low-color (atari) and a hi-color (PC).
* CinE has only been tested with the PC versions.
* There is a hack in CinE to bypass both FW and OS protection screens. FW bypass is made by booting the auto00 inlined in the code, OS is bypassed by forcing a specific value in the engine (this is the actual methode used to restart the game while not returning to the protection screen)
* Cruise for a corpse is not supported by cinE, but by cruisE, an independent engine
* Savegames are not compatible with the original PC version.
* Only the Adlib music is used so far, but a MT-32 track is available in the resources
