Default Toonstruck

Does anyone know where I can get the game? I bought one on amazon but it doesn't even work, it's a bad copy. so disapointed, I love that game and really want it. I know its old though would it still work on a newer computer?

There are several copies on EBAY and I'm sure you could get them to work with some tweaking but I think your safest bet would be just to wait and see if it ever releases on GoG.

Toonstruck runs fine in the free program DOSbox, which is compatible with modern computers.
See http://www.dosbox.com

Playing games in DOSbox is not hard, trust me. I'm hopeless when it comes to complicated computer stuff, but I can do it and so can you. Look here:

Alternatively, you could just use ScummVM - much easier to set up.
