I  have not seen the original question, and had no access to Windows
version 3 until now. I am still waiting for the SDK.

Anyway: my TETRIS clone KLOTZ, which I posted to this newsgroup early this
year seems to run under Win3 in both standard and enhanced mode. Of course
it's a version 2 application, so one gets the warning message.
   When the toolkit arrives here and if I get some free time in the evening,
I will do an improved version of KLOTZ and post it .  I'm not sure
where the better place for posting is, here or in comp.binaries.ibm.pc.
   I could not upload it to Simtel20, because their policy doesn't 
allow games (I asked).
