Ignatus As I see many people complaining about the sound quality (even in the game's review) I feel I have to do justice to the game encouraging people to run it with "bt n" to get the correct audio.

gumpy The C64 version of this game is total rubish, the DOS version is OK.

Kippesoep Just in case anybody is trying to play this game, I've made a patch for the problem with Billy the Kid. Check out this page.

Hey there, I read this post, and the person you quoted sounded really familiar...I realized it was ME! I was the Guest that came in here and wrote how the guard scared me. Man, it's been a while--yea, I don't know what's up with the sound--but I still had fun---btw, do you know what to do with Socrates? or SO-Crates :P

Anyway, this site is great, one of the best so far-memories

I had to reply because I owned this game for the PC back in the day. Both the review and several posts describe the sound as really really bad, but I remember playing it on a 386 and it sounded fantastic (for the day :amused. The voices were clear and the music, guitar riffs and sound effects struck me as really decent and quality. I'm not even sure to tell the truth if I had a sound card at the time - there were several games out at the time that pulled off some trickery (I want to say Crime Wave was also one but I may be mistaken) and got the PC speaker to do stuff they said it couldn't. So anyway I grabbed it, loaded it up in DosBox, and what do you know? Crap. I tried every sound setting in DosBox I could think of and got the same thing. So I'm wondering if maybe it's something with the emulation? I was going to load it up in VMSound and give that a try, but I'm running Vista x64 and can't seem to get that to work. I will say that my XBox 360 joystick through DosBox works most excellent for this game!

Anyway this game was a fun and not too intense way to wile away an afternoon. Regarding the comment about the ice pick, I seem to remember that too, maybe it's the difficulty setting - there are four to choose from so maybe that puzzle is only given at a certain level.

I'll post more if I find anything else out. Cheers!

Damn... I bought this game 13 years ago. I never figured out how to get Socrates? Anyone keen to throw me a hint?

Same for me. I played this game all the time as a kid and never got to the oracle. As an adult now downloading it.... I still can't!
