![]() ![]() Maybe I'll keep trying and see if I get anywhere. But after clearing out a good portion of Level 1 in the dungeon, I fell into a trap and landed in Level 2 where I got killed by rangers and orcs. On the second attempt I did not encounter archers. This was also where I learned that manual saving does not work, because when I rebooted and tried to continue, the game just froze. But I couldn't seem to counter-attack even though I was adjacent, it kept saying "OUT OF RANGE" or something like that, and I could not move any closer. And the icon for them actually looked like little men hiding in the trees, rather than light dots. Drash, cut through the forest, and hidden archers, previously invisible, started shooting at me from the woods. There was one other thing I've experienced that never happened in the remake. And at higher speeds, it's liable to auto-pass my turn, since input is timed. This is especially painful in dungeons, where standing still and attacking enemies makes the screen redraw with each attack. Every move redraws the screen, and at the default speed it is SLOW. I appear to have no name, no inventory, and be a Level 1 Lizard Peasant.Īctually playing the game is a bit agonizing. Then I resurrect onto an island with a signpost. So I have to use emulator quicksaves.Īnother weird issue, and maybe this is just a bug from the original game - if I take the disk images in their pristine state and try to continue a previous game without generating a new character, it plops me in the middle of the ocean, dead on arrival. But there is a big problem - if I save with the 'Q' key and try to load the save later, AppleWin just freezes. I can start a new character, save the character to disk 2, then start a new game. The rampant piracy scene really did a number on preservation just about everything floating around on the Internet is either cracked (often with obnoxious loaders), buggy, corrupt, has saves, or a combination of the above. ![]() I'm trying to play through it on AppleWin, but it's a rough experience.įinding "pristine" images that work is tough.
