Kurtan / Kurt
Did you know?
One verified detail of the day about the game and its history.
Revaz S. Mesarkishvili is credited as both the main programmer and the designer.
Kurtan, and the official German release Kurt, is a classic DOS puzzle game in the Sokoban tradition, where careful movement and planning matter more than speed. Our release is intended for owners of the original game files and supports the known retail versions of Kurtan and Kurt, applying only the patches meant for the executable that was actually detected. That keeps the game close to its original form while making it much more comfortable to use on modern systems.
Our trainer can remove or freeze the time limit, improve keyboard controls without requiring an external key mapper, and provide additional help depending on the version. For the Russian releases we can enable free hints, unlimited vitality, and preventing key loss; for Kurtan v2.01 and Kurt we also offer unlimited time, free hints, unlimited vitality, and keeping keys intact. All changes are temporary, each target byte is checked against the expected original state before anything is written, and everything is restored when the game exits. Unknown or modified executables are deliberately rejected so only supported originals are patched.
D.O.S.I. knows the shortcut.
With the matching keyfile, the waiting period in our loader/trainer is removed. Your purchase also supports our volunteer preservation work.
Optional — this release also works without a keyfile.
