They released the game for DOS PC on CD format a couple of years after the Amiga version.
The races you can select for your characters are:
human (non mutated), teacher, student, government employee, lout, bitch, jerk, siliconian (they are a cross between a programmer, a nerd and a rocker :P )
For example when a teacher is using a ruler as a weapon, he gets a bonus. A student have to use a T-ruler to counter the ruler. He gets a bonus from that.
If a Siliconian is wearing a Megadeth TShirt as an armor, he gets bonus to his armour class (because the manual says that a Siliconion becomes extra careful not to spoil his Megadeth T-shirt)

Best weapon against attacking dogs are slippers thrown at them...
Instead of making magic, the characters "swear" at each other and theyneed palate points instead of mana which can be refreshed by drinking. Otherwise the tongue becomes glued to the palate and your character can not swear.
When a character eats peppers, his endurance increases.
When he drink beer, his courage increases and your party can enter dark alleys.
When he chews barleycorn gums, his speed increases (because horses eat barleycorn)
If you want to resurrect a dead party member, you have to bring him to a certain prostitute. (she has advertisements in the game saying "she would even resurrect the dead if need be". It was a surprise when she actually resurrected a dead party member for me :P I had no idea they were that serious.

During the first parts of the game, you can not cross the bridge to the other side of Istanbul because there's a traffic jam.
In the game you fight the inflation monster (a dragon), the police attacking students and mostly religious fanatics.
