Dragon 32/64 emulators

XRoar is the only emulator you'll need. It's an open source Dragon emulator for Windows, Mac, Linux and Unix.

Running Dragon 32/64 games with XRoar

You will need a ROM file to make XRoar work in the first place, you can find them on the TRS-80 Color Computer Archive. Place the ROM files in XRoar directory and be careful to name them properly, as stated in the manual.

For example, you will need to have a ROM named "d32.rom" in the directory to be able to emulate the Dragon 32. Once you have the ROM running (you are prompted with a green screen), it's easy to start a game.

• click on File > Run... then choose the game file you have previously unzipped ;
• play!
