I managed to get TW2002 running on my Mystic board with dosemu2 this morning. I had to set it to use the standard comm port routines, as it wouldn't display anything to the screen when set to use a fossil driver. Strange, as all my other games use the fossil driver with no issues.

There was some dosemu gunk that got printed to the screen as the game closed out, but it seemed to run great otherwise.
