If you'd like to pm me with your email address, I'll send you out the xpak files. In the meantime, I've uploaded another archive to the server and I'm just waiting to hear that it's been transferred over to the download spot.

I cannot for the life of me get this game to work?! I need help. I'm using Dosbox .63 and it keeps asking for the CD ROM. I tried mounting my CD Rom Drive but it's not working still. Please help me. Thank you.

I use a different OS, but to get rid of the CD Rom nag, I found that if I either inserted any CD rom into the drive or hit the F key that the game would then start.

@staff: why did you only vote the game with 4?

I rated the game a 4 because I thought the first game in the series was a better one, and that one should be a 5. In comparison, this game, which I still think is really great, is a 4. Just IMHO. Although most of the community seem to agree. This isn't Brett Sperry, is it?

Just my two cents, but I didn't like the first title very much--except graphically. I remember the random solution puzzles; and when I neutrally quizzed one of the development team members about it (while the Project Leader was on the phone), he blurted out angrily, "It's random because that's the way life is!" :blink: The PL thanked him, told him to leave, and conducted a much friendlier conversation after that. In fact, the PL called me later after the review was published to say that he agreed completely with my conclusions--and that the reason some of the attempts at humor were so blunt was that he was brought in late. Heh! But he promised better in the second title, and I think (and I know others disagree) he was right. The other titles in the series had graphics that were still better (I will never forget the giant foot being chased around the tree), and very fine dialog.

In any case, kudos for having those titles here. They deserve to be remembered. IMO, Kyrandia was the only series that provided a true challenge to the hegemony of Lucasarts and Sierra in adventure games.

@ PicassoSinatra
I had the same problem. Have you tried to use the cdemu2.com file?
just type "cdemu2 [any drive letter]:" and it should work then by starting the "main" file. I made a file called Kyrandia.bat with
"cdemu2 i:
main"
in it.

Hope to helped you!

Brilliant a top tip! Perhaps this should be added to the file as a README.TXT
