Windows 95 executables run without problem on windows NT, what you have must be a DOS game. You can try a DOS emulator like DOSBox. Or else you could make a dedicated installation of FreeDOS.

Incidentally, if the game happens to be a Lucas Arts game based on the SCUMM engine, using a program like Scummvm will be a better option.
