I have downloaded this game and got it running, but my only problem is that I don't have a joystick, and the game seems to require one for the 1st player to play. The second player works with the keyboard, but I can't get the 1st player to move at all, keyboard or mouse. And... I don't have a joystick! Does anyone know if there is any way to fix this??

Default how to run the game

Had the same problem, tried running caveman.exe but asked for password which I didnt have. I had to run the "start" file.

How I did it: (5min to do)
1. Downloaded DOSBOX .72. Google DOSBOX and it should be the first one there.

2. Click start> Dosbox 0.72 > DosBox config.

3. After opening the dosbox notepad, scroll ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM where you see:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.

4. Type the following:
mount C C:\<TYPE THE DIRECTORY WHERE YOUR GAMES ARE LOCATED HERE>
C:
CLS

5. Open DosBox. The directory should already be at your games folders (See step 4.)

6. Type: "Cd caveman" (or whatever the folder is called) <enter> "start" <enter>

I wish these games would come with a manual for Keyboard instructions that can be download. How to command the players, and change sound, video mode etc.

There are many manuals that will be added in the days/weeks/months to come. Scanning a manual can be time consuming, though.
