I don't have the original game disk but here is what I've seen with the copy on the colorcomputerarchive.This version boots into an 80 column screen. The game expects a standard TV not an RGB monitor so you may want to change colors.
With this version I could boot with my current VCC setup to an 80 col. screen, then docd /D0cx /D0/cmdsand the game ran correctly far as I could tell.
So, you can use your current disk in /D0 but not boot from it. If that doesn't work for you, download one of the several versions from colorcomputerarchive.
If your system is a hard drive real or emulated, you probably can transfer the contents to a game directory on your system disk an run it that way from an 80 col. screen.
