i seem to have figured out my problem and some sort of solution but its a bit dodgy...

For people having problems (like me) of gettin stuck at the tavern and not being able to move the solution was provided to press the windows button then the alt+tab button...supposedly it would allow you to get back to windows (the game minimizes) and from there you can maximize the game again and it would run properly...BUT this does not seem to work for a few of us.

Instead, when we press the Windows Start button, the game is still "mapped" onto the windows i.e. you can barely make out the desktop by moving your mouse cursor around.

What I tried to do was find (through guessing and trial and error) where the "log off" button was once the Windows Start button was selected, and select it. Then again, trial and error to log off my account. This allowed me to get out of the game without having to switch the whole computer off.

Since I have other accounts on the computer, i accessed another and immediately logged off it. Then i entered my account again (where the game was running) and there is was, minimized at the bottom of the screen. I maximize it, and it runs perfectly.

But everytime there seems to be a change of level or something (where theres this narration...i.e. it happened again at the three pillars) it does the same thing and stops me from moving around again. So then i go thru the same procedure again. This gets very tedious (logging off and on to another account and then back to my account), so does anyone out there have a simpler solution?

THanks in forward.

You have to Switch User from the place your running the game...then Log into another account...and as soon as you get into that other account, Log Off. And then back to your account. Its important that you Log Off the other account. When i just tried to Switch Userf orm the opther account, the problem wasnt solved.

You'll find the same problem happening again later during the game, but not as often, so I guess this switching of accounts method isnt really that bad.

I havent yet understood why this game falls into the category of an RPG? Ive been playing a bit so far but theres no character development or npc interaction. It seems to be fairly linear and a lot of just walking around with a sword and hacking...(keep in mind that im at the point in the game where ive just turned myself into bats)...really hope theres a lot more to it...

RPG elements, at the very least. Diablo is also classified as an RPG, you know...

2x POST:
OK i'ved found a better solution it goes like this:
1. OPEN THE GAME
2. START GAME
3. YOU SEE IT'S A DARK SCREEN OK THAT'S THE PROBLEM
4. PUSH THE WINDOW BUTTON
5. TRY TO SWITCH USER
6. OPEN THE GAME IN THE USER
7. START THE GAME OK BLANK AS ALLWAYS THEN PRESS THE WINDOW BUTTON AND TRY TO PUSH THE "ALL PROGRAMS" THEN IT WILL SHRINK THEN OPEN THE GAME AGAIN AND IT WILL WORK LIKE THAT

P.S.: the problem of this game is that the game has no video clips like you know video clips i had the original game sometime and the game started with a video clip and at the pillars and at all the game when it stucks i'ved finished it yesterday and i am going to p[lay it again because it's cool

2nd P.S.: This game deserves to be an RPG game
