1993 original floppy release
1994 CD-ROM - full speech and additional narrative history of the lands by Patrick Stewart
1996 CD-ROM - "special" white label European release. No idea what's so special about it, even though I have this. Doesn't appear any different from the '94 release, except maybe the box art.
