This page is a quick guide to help you find some of the programs/applications you will need to finish this game. Along with a DSL/broadband connection, and a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher you really should have these applications. (Access to a printer is highly advisable.) Yes, there are a lot of alternatives, but these are the ones most common and found by the CWoT Leaders to be the best. If your equipment can't get the job done you are on your own. If you find your computer lacking in any of these areas, click the icons(*) to the downloads page for that particular product.
Reminder... All of these programs are either freeware OR shareware with a free trial version or trial period. CWoT will NEVER make you buy anything to play!
