Exclamation

Great funny game! Pity about it having hardly any animation, but it's great fun to play anyway. Enjoy!

This game immediately became one of my favorites. I frequently found myself laughing out loud. I probably would have finished it way sooner if I wasn't having so much fun with the text parser along the way. It was incredible how almost any verb + object combination you could think of would have a different witty response to it. One of my favorites that I can remember was when I was stuck in the temple with the girl who was going to be sacrificed and I didn't know what to do -- I tried "eat virgin" and the game replied along the lines of "perhaps you are confusing this with a Leisure Suit series of adventure games." I also liked what happened when you tried to burn something useless with the mini dragon lighter... "BURN BABY BURN!" haha. You might die a lot in this game, but your deaths were endlessly amusing. (That "undo" function came in very handy.)

Also, despite there not being any real animation, I found the graphics really enjoyable.

Thanks for making this available for download!!

Does anyone have the PDF docs that were available at the Underdogs website (which is now only "partially" online, i.e.: just reviews, no files) ?

Sure did, but nope. Not even in the "awaiting uploads" section.

Yeah - that's the right file, thanks!
Considering where this file is hosted, it should be me who found the link ;-)

I found that comment on yt:
"Do you have the soundcard set to Adlib or Sound Blaster? Some sound cards back then only played MIDI music and no sound effects (like an electric keyboard)."
But I don´t know how to change the soundcard, this game has no setup/menu like most games :/


Really nice game by the way. Easy enough to keep me going and very entertaining
