Dur. I feel dumb. I just wasn't asking the right sequence of questions.

arrrgh !
I somehow CAN`T beat this stupid bartender ... anyone got a save for me ? :cry:
apart from that i´m loving it ! :D

I can't beat the last one of the customers and just continued playing without minding that. You can get further in the game without it, it seems :ok:

WHAT!!!! :blink:
you mean I did not have to beat all those guys! :ranting:

Dunno. Haven't finished the game myself yet, but I did get quite far already without beating them :bleh:

I really enjoyed playing the guys in the bar, a nice break from brain wracking.

This is one of the funniest threads I've ever read on any forum! :blink:

I just downloaded this game and it doen't allow me to use the mouse..In the input device setting it says keyboard and mouse but I can't use the mouse...I need to use the arrow keys to move the cursor....Is this how the game is..or is just me?Please help!

Thanks!

Oh BTW,there's no sound...I mean I can't hear what they are say,but there's these noises which sound like a broken radio!

In case anyone would come across this discussion:
I'm not so sure if you can complete the game without beating the guys at the bar, since the bartender will give you some useful information after you've won from him. As far as I can remember (6 years since I've played it) it's got something to do with a taxidermist and maybe the scruffy lion's head above the bar's door.
No idea though if this is essential to the game or if there isn't a different way of getting there. Probably not :sneaky:

About the mouse: I always used the mouse, so it should work. I remember though that a friend of mine had the same problem of the mouse not working. Have you tried running it in Dosbox? No idea if this makes any difference, but you could give it a try...
