- If you already have Crazy8's v2.9 or later, get the
  AGA update archive instead.  It has all the necessary files

       pass through standard NTSC or PAL screens!

New:  AGA systems can now use 256 colour card sets
      4 new 256 colour card sets included
      you can draw your own cards in any paint program

      NOTE: the game will still work on ECS systems
