Getting a copy of Frontier
Frontier can be bought as part of the Award Winners Platinum Edition along with Lemmings and Civilization (another great game). Alternatively download the latest PC version below. This is the version included with the Award Winners pack and has most bugs fixed, including the 655.35l.y wormhole bug. It is not a hacked version and you will require an old manual from your existing version to use. Cracks[11K] are available to disable the codes but I do not advise using them. It's a bit illegal ;-) The Atari ST and Amiga versions can also be downloaded but are not cracked and require a manual.
