You are on the beta version of My Abandonware. The live site is still myabandonware.com. Your favorites and ratings here are copied to the live site. Comments and other changes are not — we delete them every morning at 08:00 Paris time, when this site goes down for about an hour. Leave feedback through this link to Pastel (email required).
The beta goes down at 08:00 Paris time, in a few minutes. We rebuild the database from the live site. It comes back in about an hour.
So I tried following the video and searching for other options, but I can not get this game to work on Windows 11. The only program that actually got me to the game's main screen was DxWND, but the buttons were not aligned correctly and I could not figure out how to fix it. Perhaps someone can look into this.

I made a video going over the steps needed to play this on Windows 11. It's not too hard to do, a lot simpler than creating a virtual machine just to play it. Link to the YouTube video is below:

@EMOLEE you can still play this game on VirtualBox using windowsXP. Also @SAINTHAPPENING you can press the Shift button, and it will show the unit numbers.

I used to play this for hours and hours. I enjoyed the animations, etc. Wish I could get it again.

Don't bother with 1998 hasbro stratego for pc! It was developed for win95. I loaded onto winxp machine which seemed to work ok. I doubt any of the problems below were caused by newer win version. While playing you only see the rank numbers when there is a challenge - otherwise you can't even see the title, e.g seargent or number of your pieces between moves. You can only go by what the hat of the piece looks like. Can't tell what's going on with graveyard view - cannot tell who's dead. Rules are different, e.g. If you challenge an equal rank piece, you win [his goes, you stay]. Threes are miners but have a different title. After you move, you have to click 10 second countdown button for computer to move or else wait till it times out. CD has to stay mounted
