A demo version of Powerslave which seems to have been an exclusive magazine coverdisk release can be found on the PC Gamer #2.13 CD and also on the NEXT Generation Nov 1996 CD. Here's the list of files in this version that are different from the Dec 1996 Powerslave Internet demo:

DEMO     VCR            404,067 30-07-1996  9:50
INSTALL  EXE            252,725 22-07-1996 14:31
PS       EXE            804,358 22-08-1996 16:48
STUFF    DAT         23,646,613 22-08-1996 16:44


The demo has the first four missions and the tutorial. Unlike the later Internet demo, the multiplayer map (LEV30.MAP) is not included. All map files have identical sizes to those found in inte Dec 1996 version, except LEV3.MAP.

STUFF.DAT contains a lot of assets from the full version. There seem to be two different versions of some sounds, like the player's taunts. One noticeable difference in this version is that the alien door sound is used for moving platforms. Mummies seem to not use the red skull attack.
