You need to unarchive the files contained within the zip file into a new folder. Enter the folder and look for the file called acro.bat. If your copy of Windows does not show file extensions, then look for the file called acro that has a batch file icon. This is the file that you need to run.

Please be aware that MS-DOS based programs don't always run directly from Windows, and how it behaves when run will depend on your version of Windows. You may have to run the game from DOS compatible mode, or amend the file's properties before it will run successfully.
