Yay! The greatest game ever!

I have a couple of questions, though:

I used to play this on my old Atari ST... would I be better off downloading the Amiga version rather than the PC one? Or even Pirates! Gold? Although, far as I know, that was never released on the ST.

Also, in the brief time I've had to look at it, it keeps crashing - after finishing off the useless first captain, the first city screen rarely ever loads. I'm using 0.65, but should I try and get 0.63 perhaps?

Great game, though.

UPDATE: As it happens, I've just gone off and found an actual ST version (hate to say it, but it IS better than the PC equivalent... it probably benefited a lot from being released two years later). Not that I mean to criticise the wonderful Abandonia in any way.

Me and my entire family must've played over 3000 hours on this game back in the olden Commodore 64 game.
Hands down best replayable game ever.

You will need to extract the zip file, and then use DOSBox to play the game. On how to set up and use DOSBox, please read this
http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index...howtopic=14913

When you have read this and tried, feel free to ask if you're having problems with DOSBox or the game.

You can only save the game when you are in the city (also make sure the folder in windows doesn't have anything ticked off - that might cause problems with creating save game files).

i played this game for a while now and reached kings advisor. I was wondering if it is a glitch that i have 126/100 points in the end?

It's probably intended this way, you are not the first one with more than 100 points IIRC.
