you can find it on the snes, i still own a snes and i got both lost vikings games. If you really want it then download the emulator and try to find the rom (this is of course illegal if you don't own the original copy *wink wink*)

really? does the magazine say its a demo or just a full copy?

well if u can't find amiga roms then look for the FAR FAR FAR superior machine THE ATARI ST and although this isn't the rom site its actually a dedicated ST site which can steer you to the right way to finding the games do a search for it-> the little green desktop
