Those are square pixels. Not an AGI game. How about KQ1SCI?

How can you even tell they're square pixels? It's frakkin' tiny!

My guess is CODENAME: ICEMAN.

I'd think that'd make it more difficult... I am on a 22" wide screen monitor... It seems if I were to put it to 800x600 resolution vs whatever amazingly high resolution I have it at now (can never remember what the work resolution is set to - and too lazy to double check) - but it'd seem a smaller resolution would be more beneficial since the image would not appear so small. (And thus, it'd be closer to the game's native resolution and probably more easily identifiable)... Kinda like when I enlarged the small screenshot... Larger resolutions would make it look even smaller. So logically wouldn't a smaller monitor/resolution actually be more beneficial in this case? As larger monitors (if you zoom in) would only further pixelate the image? Am I rambling or making sense? :lol:

If yours is the HG281D, it is actually 27.5". Sounds perfectly normal to me :D . Anything smaller at this point seems too small.

It's a 27" monitor but the resolution only goes as high as 1920x1080 which still makes the pixels fairly noticeable.

Mine is a 27.5 and does 1920x1200. If I drop it down to 1920x1080 I do start to notice some pixelation. Regardless, the main thing is having the desktop real estate. So much of what I do involves having multiple applications and I can keep several visible at the same time instead of having to constantly cycle through them. But when it comes to game play it is nice to have the big screen, too.
