Game crashes

The game crashes just several screens after I leave the hotel at the beginning of the game (the screen where somebody gives change to a blind man). I tried several copies from different sites, both on dosbox and on windows xp.

Confounding game >Meet strange man who claims to have a bizarre fascination with your clothing
>Wander deep into central park with this complete stranger, get naked with him

...

New York City in the 1980's must have been a much more innocent place and time.

Tracker The problem is I couldn't get past the wedding, but it was nice to see some people still play this perfect game.

Red herring?

I figure about 1 person a year may see this but

VERY MINOR SPOILER

On Friday morning an "attractive darkhaired woman" who knows you as Hollings shows up. She says things which make it seem like she knows the whole story, but then runs off to a "date" at the World Trade Center (sigh) and leaves you to get rid of a detective on her tail. You tell the detective an address which you "can't remember the significance of".

First of all, the address is completely random, secondly so far as I can tell there is nothing at the World Trade Center, so it seems like there is no way to catch up with this lady.

If this is a pure red herring it's a highly annoying one since there is no way the actual plotline represents smarter things to do than trying to catch up with her.

END SPOILER

END RANT ABOUT 25 year old game

I am on XP and it seems to run ok on that. You can run it in DOSBox as DH suggested. Otherwise, you will have to be more specific about what happens when you start it.

DarthHelmet86 Well you are going to need to use Dosbox to run this game, like many on this site. Read this if you need help with Dosbox or are unfamilar with Dos commands.... Dosbox tutorial. Let us know if you have any problems after that.

Help me Geezer!!!

I have a x64-bit computer running Windows Vista... I downloaded the .zip file, but the game won't run, wtf do I do? I've wanted to play this game for the first time in 20 years!! Help me Geezer... You're my only hope...

Geezer Glad I could help. There are quite a few games on Abandonia that are hard to play without the manual. That's what got me started doing this. It gets kinda tedious sometimes but it is always cool to see a "complete" game to get a more real sense of what it was like to open up that box.

Geezer - what a Geezer you are!!!!!

Geezer, although it's 9 months since my last post I just want to say a HUGE thanks for putting up all the extra documentation, which in this game is really needed! I have the C64 disk, but you cannot get anywhere in the game with the docs and so I just forgot about the game as I could not find it anywhere with the docs!

I go to Lemon64 and happen to see Amnesia, so take a look and someone has said 'can't do anything with this game without the docs so go to this 'www link', the link brings me here, and there I see ALL the documentation!!!! This is what I have been waiting about 5 years for!!! Was even toying with the idea of spending £18 ($30) on an Apple IIe version 'cos it had the docs!!!

So thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! I can now, after 15 years plus, restart this game with the knowledge that I have everything I need to play the game - thanks to you!!!!

Geezer There is a hints section in the manual if it gets a little sticky.
