Ahhhhh...a Magnetic Scrolls text adventure, I adored playing these on my Atari ST and then later my Amiga, so full of atmosphere and really well written with lovely piccys adding to the game. What I remember most is how great the Magnetic Scrolls game packaging was, lovely artwork and lots of bits and bobs included in the box, not unlike infocom games. Truly a company that excelled in its field and made distinctive, enjoyable products!

This game was originally made for Amiga, Atari, Commodore64, Zx Spectrum, and other like. So, to run it in DOS, it needs a emulator.

Huh, wierd work around the whole "abandonia isn't an emulator site" thing. Then again, there were more than a few emulated games I played in DOS back in the day, not knowing it. Games like this.

Yes it was released for the PC, but it is extremely rare. I saw it being sold at eBay a while ago.
What you can download here is not the PC game fish, but rather an interpreter using the Amiga graphics and other files from vintage systems (possibly Commodore 64).
