Unfortunately you can't. The Woomb games are played on the PC using the launch application. I haven't tried this game but I heard its very good so you won't be disappointed.

Hi JapanRetro, I answered your support ticket exactly 2 minutes after you submitted it. Even before you opened this topic  I can't reply any faster than that. Please communicate with WOOMB through the ticket system, thanks in advance  |

@Rolins: you do not have to be connected to play, but you need to be connected to login, download and refresh content.

Heard it is not possible... if it can WOOMB will have a customer more.

If they told us how to do that, I'm sure that they will gain more then just one customer  |

Of course, you can figure out how to extract the game and run it into your real MSX hardware. WOOMB indeed uses an emulator and encrypted ROM/DSK files. Decrypt the file and extract them: you'll be able to play it on your MSX normally. As long as you do not redistribute the game, I guess that it is OK, 'cause you have payed for the right to play that game, am I wrong?

Haven't you been to school?  If some teacher (probably math) told a class to shut up and work on their own, would the class obey that like some sweet angels?  |

Aaaand I'm sure they will gain more than just customers, like major billenkoek from MSXA.

Actually, that's a rather big assumption. Any changes that were made to the original code may have left some compatibility problems. And with it only being meant for running in an emulator, such things could be left in without problems. And if you want to be really paranoid, you could wonder whether some incompatibilities were left in on purpose to make it fully dependent in this particular emulator. |
