Eye of the Beholder on CGA sounds like all kinds of awful.

I think that image would be better on a Hercules card.

Interestingly enough, it is. The second computer I had was a 286 17Mhz with a Hercules card and a mono orange screen. Using a TSR CGA emulator program I could play most CGA games, and that game was fairly playable (tho that may just be orangemono colored glasses).
I have to admit tho, it is kinda lacking on my 200lx :lol:
