Randomly throughout the game, to stop piracy, a screen will pop up and ask you to identify the name of a ship. Back when the game was release, the instruction booklet was the only place to get this information. If you clicked the wrong ship name, the game would exit.&lt;p&gt;In the GOG version,  you can click on any ship and the game will continue. I was very impressed that they kept that small detail while providing an easy way around it. It really brought be back to the early 90&amp;#x27;s, playing the game round-robin with my father.&lt;p&gt;Frighteningly, since I hadn&amp;#x27;t played the game in 20+ years, I realized I still actually remembered some of those ship names.</text></comment>
