There's a "readme" displayed during the demo install but it doesn't seem to
exist as a file outside of it.  The text can be copied to the clipboard and
pasted into LibreOffice or a text editor.  There is this note of interest:

PROBLEMS: The text on the main-menu and/or in the game have a magenta
          colour, and look garbled.
   CAUSE: Window's automatic font-smoothing isn't perfect.
SOLUTION: Go to Display Properties, select the "Effects" tab and
          uncheck "Smooth edges of screen fonts".
HARDWARE: No particular hardware.
