    How to play
    1. You need your own LEGO Island, the English version 1.1: its README shows how to check yours.
    2. Take the rebuilt CONFIG.EXE, ISLE.EXE and LEGO1.DLL from the project's continuous release, or build them as its README explains.
    3. Swap them for the originals in LEGO Island's install folder: by default under Program Files (x86) on 64-bit Windows, under Program Files on 32-bit.
    4. If it reports a missing d3drm.dll (Windows has not shipped it since XP), put a copy beside the executables, as its README explains.
    5. It runs only on Windows: for other systems and the web, its README points to isle-portable.
