We can't "make" a new version of this game. Abandonia is not this game's developer. However... read on.

But that is not actually a problem - there's a way to run this game on your system with no need for such a version.
The answer, my friend, is DOSBox.
The way this works is:
* DOSBox runs on your system
* The game runs in DOSBox
* DOSBox itself is compatible with your OS, while the game only has to be compatible with DOSBox
There you have it, an unmodified copy of SimAnt working on a modern system through the miracle of emulation.
