Dragon Clash (Classic Mac, Monte Boyd, 1999)

You can download this fantasy fighting game as DragonClashFolder.sit (not DragonClashFolder.sit.md5) here or here, and run it on modern systems by following the instructions below the images.

After downloading the game, run this in-browser emulator (faster, but may crash within emulated system with type 4 error) or this one (slower, but hasn't crashed for me yet).

Drag the file you downloaded onto the emulated desktop.

Open The Outside World, then Downloads, and open the file you'll find there. (If a dialog box with lots of options appears, just click OK.)

One it's finished loading, open the folder that will have appeared. If it didn't appear, close and re-open Downloads. Don't open the game yet, though.

See the control strip at the lower left with the two screen icons and the speaker icon? Click and hold the second screen icon and select the second option from the bottom.

Open the game. Click Play when the dialog box appears. Skip the intro by clicking if you want. On the main menu, a registration notice will appear; type 86781320 and click Register (the button on the left). If you mess up, just quit the game and re-open it to try again.
