Anno 1602 demo (Max Design / Sunflowers, 1998)

lib/apps.js id anno1602_demo (localhost-only), exe test/binaries/win98-games-a-d/Anno1602-demo-SW/extracted/1602.exe with the app-local Maxnet.dll, Maxsound.dll and Language.dll (smackw32.dll auto-loads beside the exe; msvcrt.dll comes from the shared DLL set).

The download Anno1602Demo-SWonly.exe is a RAR self-extractor whose contents are the game tree itself (470 entries, 37 MB). 7-Zip lists it but has no codec for this RAR version ("Unsupported Method"); it was extracted with node-unrar-js (createExtractorFromFile). Manifest: node tools/gen-win98-games-a-d-manifests.js. No registry or CD check.

Software DirectDraw at 800x600 (the CLI canvas is 640x480; ctl clicks are in capture coordinates and go through the presentation transform). Input is plain window messages. It runs clean: no unimplemented API on the route below.
