-Memory Requirements: 512k of RAM
 ==Game Variants==
 The MS-DOS, Apple II, Apple IIGS, Atari ST, Tandy 1000, and PCjr versions are similar in terms of graphics.  The Amiga version used an extended palette.
+==Installation==
+===Required data files - SCI===
+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. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.p0* RESOURCE.000</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.p0* > RESOURCE.000</code> on *nix).
+* Concatenate all RESOURCE.a0* files to RESOURCE.AUD (e.g. <code>copy /b RESOURCE.a0* RESOURCE.AUD</code> on Windows, or <code>cat RESOURCE.a0* > RESOURCE.AUD</code> on *nix).
