It also has a play by modem option for two players but you need to send in for that. It's avaiable via anonymous ftp from ux1.cso.uiuc.edu in the /pc/exec-pc/dblocks.zip /pc/exec-pc/dblock1.zip I don't know what the difference is between these and don't remember which one I have played. Enjoy. Bill Froelich froelich@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu
