'''Jones in the Fast Lane''' is a life simulation game. The game is setup like a board game. The player can move about the board freely within the time allotted per turn. Time is used by moving to a new location and by doing things such as working or resting. Each turn represents one week in the player's life.

==Installation== | |||
===Required data files=== | |||
For more information on how ScummVM uses game data files, see the [https://docs.scummvm.org/en/latest/use_scummvm/game_files.html user documentation]. | |||
WARNING: Unlike other games, SCI games have significant variation in the naming of required files. | |||
They also can load supplementary files by resource maps, so it is recommended to keep all files in the game data directory from the CD. | |||
Unless otherwise specified, do '''NOT''' remove any file from the directory, even if it does not appear on the following list, since this will likely cause weird bugs. | |||
Copy all files to the game directory. Some games need additional work: | |||
'''''Floppy games with RESOURCE.p01, p02, etc. and/or RESOURCE.a01, a02, etc. files''''' | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.p0* files to RESOURCE.000 (e.g. <tt>copy /b RESOURCE.p0* RESOURCE.000</tt> on Windows, or <tt>cat RESOURCE.p0* > RESOURCE.000</tt> on *nix). | |||
* Concatenate all RESOURCE.a0* files to RESOURCE.AUD (e.g. <tt>copy /b RESOURCE.a0* RESOURCE.AUD</tt> on Windows, or <tt>cat RESOURCE.a0* > RESOURCE.AUD</tt> on *nix). | |||
