For anyone curious of the musical differences, I've linked to videos of both versions below. Finding videos of the Floppy Disc is rarer to find, but the one below is a partial playthrough.

---Floppy Disc--- Version
- First release version.
- Synthesized soundtrack.

---CD-ROM--- Version
- Released in 1993.
- Orchestral soundtrack, with more tracks than the Synthesized version.



Links to the JP versions and other platforms below for comparison.

---PC-98---
- Synthesized soundtrack, but audibly different than the MS-DOS Floppy Disc ver. due to hardware differences.
- Different sound effects

---FM Towns---
- Synthesized soundtrack, identical sounding to the Floppy Disc version.
- Music has been rearranged in levels. For example, the Foyer has the same intro music in the Floppy Disc version, but has no music in the FM Towns version.

---3DO---
- Orchestral soundtrack version. Identical to CD-ROM.

---Acorn Archimedes---
- Has sound effects, but no music is present. Strangely still credits Philippe Vachey as Music and SFX.

---iOS iPhone---
- Uses the orchestral soundtrack. Music arrangement is different and resembles the FM-Towns arrangement.
