Version 1.8.14 is an (improved) update of Rival Win95 1.5. It plays some variants, but not Suicide. The correct answer is: go to http://www.gambitsoft.com/sharee.htm & download Rival - DOS version 1.5f by Moreton 1998 (rival15f.zip) This Plays happily in Win95/98 AND PLAYS SUICIDE! Sorry again for bum steers, but my Netscape bookmarks don't exist, & I had to follow Eelco's lead & then find the right Rival. It was worth the search, this is a nice suicide player, & that's an interesting game in its own right. >See ya's >Tina
