There is an official soundtrack for the game which was supplied on the cover CD of the French magazine Generation 4. It consists solely of Red Book audio.


Also there was CD-ROM release of this game in US. Some unconfirmed info on it could be found [http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/ftp.cdrom.com/pub/cdrom/usenet/alt.cd-rom/1914 here]. Excerpts from that thread:

According to Marik Meytin from that thread, the game was published by Sony on CD-ROM in the United States.  It only takes up between 1.4 and 1.5 megabytes of the CD-ROM and includes a playable demo of Lexigraph.

      I actually bought that game ($11.99 at Egghead Software).  However,
'''''Amiga Demo'''''
      the last thing you need is that game on CD-ROM.  The game (plot, etc.) is
 
      not bad, but it only takes about 1.4-1.5Meg of CD-ROM space, and
* *.dat
      graphics, well, are not what you would expect from CD-ROM game
* *.PRC
      (EGA only? I don't think it even supports standard VGA).  The same
* DEMO
      disk also includes demo (playable) of "Lexigraph" (?) - sorta like
 
      Wheel Of Fortune from the future.  Overall, pretty bad, but probably
'''''Atari ST'''''
      worth 12 bucks.
