Anyone experience that? Sure curious how to get to it.

By the way it's up for download at Microsoft's Public FTP server ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/deskapps/games/public/AAS/Hover.exe And is luckly still supported in Vista!!! I think its interesting though that there is a Easter egg for the game to view the developer's heads/faces that has been lost over time if you know how to do, Please post it on wikipedia!!! The article's name is Hover! (with explanation mark:) I loved that game!!

The only way you would know it's there is if someone told you about it or if you stumbled across it while browsing through the folders on the CD. That's what I mean by it being a "hidden game." Interesting that it wasn't that way on all Win95 versions though. Glad you enjoyed the post. :-) Daniel,

But I don't see why you and everyone else on the internet is saying that the game was 'hidden' on the CD. I have just put in my Windows 95 CD from back then (First public release, German version). It has an autostart application, with five big, fat buttons, and one of them sais "Hover!" and directly starts the game. I don't know if other releases of Windows 95 didn't feature that menu or that button, but I didn't ever look at Hover as being a hidden game.
