  1. Hello, Please turn off all anti-virus before opening the thot3d.bat file, thats why its saying no cd found, also extract both zip files at the same time. problem that it goes full screen and alt+tab or windows key does not work.

  3. Thanks played and got to the final chapter “house of the dead”, I just downloaded the Windows RIP, extracted the files, used power ISO, clicked thotd, opened task manager (ctrl+alt+delete) when in game, ended explorer.exe (everything would disappear except task manager go to services and click thotd again and voila your playing the game without any discoloration and it’s just like in the arcades except just using a keyboard and a mouse. Also when you quit in order to fix your screen just click task manager again, file, new task and type “explorer.exe”. BTW thank you for uploading this game my cousin and I enjoyed playing this brief but classic game keep it up!

    • Hi, can I ask help? after I extracted the files and clicked the thotd, it only says “CD-ROM is not found” I am not really into techy stuff as I was just following the instructions on how to download and play this game.

  4. this game cant be fucking played! the resolution on a 1080 monitor is shit half the screen is GONE! and the mouse part wont work right! if you claim to work as hard as you do (btw i dont think you legit do) then your work would show! if you dont fix your shitty ports then fucking remove them!
