==ISLE.EXE==

The main executable. Creates the window handle, ~~initializes most of the DirectX libraries~~, and ~~also~~ runs the main game loop. A fairly simple application, it largely passes off to the functions in LEGO1.DLL for the bulk of the game code.

The exact purpose of using LEGOIsle.exe instead of linking directly to ISLE.EXE is unknown, as is purpose of having the two be the same executable. All desktop and start menu shortcuts to LEGO Island actually launch LEGOIsle.exe, despite the fact that its only action is launching ISLE.EXE.

==NOCD.SI==

The only [[Interleaf File]] installed to the hard drive rather than streamed from the CD-ROM. Contains a video instructing the player to insert the CD if the game cannot find the rest of its assets.
