A great adaptation of classic sci-fi series by Arthur C.
Clarke and co-designed by the author himself with Gentry Lee, RAMA casts you as a crew member of the exploration team sent to explore the mysterious alien object code-named RAMA that's orbiting Earth. Most puzzles are mathmatical, e.g. decipher the alien numerical system and logic, and are a lot of fun to solve. The third CD is a bonus CD that includes in-depth interviews with both designers. Highly recommended, especially to fans of hard sci-fi and those who love Legend's Mission Critical..

Merged all three CDs in one folder. Do not replace files. Run in Scumm and add game and choose the merged folder.

One more thing. Just merge files from 3 ISO, I used WinCDEmu, into one dedicated file "RAMA". You don't need to rename RESOURCE files, but make sure vmd and robot have all the files in them from all 3 CDs. Happy Gaming.
For anyone who is trying to run this game with ScummVM, try this link.

Thank you very much !
From my last comment.useing scummvm to run rama.i have now merged all the contents of iso discs 2 and 3 into my first rama folder. it's important to merge so the contents of the folders are added and not replaced.i now have access to prologue and interviews on the main menu.as well as load a game have played the the game for hours with no problems...yet I'm not saying this is the right way but seems to work...?
Have got this working in scummvm emulator...almost.what i have done is unpacked the zip from here which contains 3 iso disc images over 500mb each.i mount the first iso disk useing wincdemu or similer tool to open it. coped everything inside to a rama folder on desktop. Started scumvm 2.6.1 new game.redirected to rama folder on deasktop choose rama dos. From options ok start rama from scum runs great fmv sound ok reminds me of riven Myst game also playable on scumm.i dont know what to do do with diacs 2 & 3? If thy are playable on there own or can i merge discs 2&3 to one folder scumm wikki has some info. But dont understand about renaming file's any help welcome.but for now the first disc is working.so it is possible to run this in scummvm and it looks and sounds good
It says MS-DOS. I haven't downloaded it yet (very slow) but you should be able to use Dosbox/Dosbox-X to run it. That's probably more likely to work than ScummVM since this is a very late generation Sierra game and likely to not be well supported by ScummVM for a long time.
Could Try scummvm emulator
Has anyone a solution for Win10? I can't even install the game because of the 64bit issue.
RAMA is in Germany ???? a tasty low fat Butter (Margarine) .
I never known that a Game with the same Name exists ????
Awesome game! I'm surprised it's not very popular. Too bad I've never finished it, was a bit too challenging for me back then. Hope to beat it now!
Fairly faithful to the Rama II novel, including the 12 main characters. A lot of the backstory is missing, but how can you really make the (economically flawed) Great Chaos and the life of Saint Michael of Sienna part of the adventure? The puzzles and unfolding mystery are well-designed. Andt hey're some of the most challenging puzzles you'll find in a Myst-like game.
Look into the SheepShaver emulator at emaculation.com.
is there any chance to run this mac game on windows? =/
