This game's page should tell you that the male and female games are in the wrong folders (which I mentioned ages ago) and have some "like this" games - and have those games link this one.
Maybe link the instructions that are here on the page..?

I think that there's a web version of this now, too.

People are missing out on games like this...
It's our duty to get people remembering or discovering how great some of the less popular games are here!

Yes, the games unfortunately are switched.

And I realized that only after I named my girlie Charles...

EDIT: Oh, I forgot -> the online version

I'll fix this today.

Edit: Done. Folders are now switched back. For the .vig files, unless you specify which ones should I copy from one folder to another I can't do anything.

Also can someone recheck if everything's okay with the folders? Thank you.

I don't know how it disappeared from our servers but it's back online.

The online version of this game can be found:

Right Here

It's almost exactly the same as the Dos version, but not as cool.

Default Odd problem...

I really want to play this game, but I can't even get started-- the arrow keys refuse to work, for some reason.

I'm running it through DOSBox on Ubuntu 9.0.4.
Please help, if you can... I'd appreciate it a lot.

Hi Igochi!

When you start the game, do you get through to this screen?


This is where you first start interacting with the game.
If you don't get to this screen, we may need to look at a few things. But if you do, and it's the game playing controls that are confusing you...
Here's a quick list of the controls:

SPACE = Select
Arrow/Numpad Keys = Highlight Option
ESC = Switch from Timeline to other Icons

The up/down arrows are used for highlighting your choices and space is used to check the box.
Left/right arrows are only used when navigating the time-line.

The Icons don't give much away by their appearance, so here's a list of what they are:


If you've gotten past these screens and still can't play the game, we'll have a look at what else may be causing you problems.
For me, though, once I'd figured out how to control the game (the ESC key is very important, getting stuck on the outside icons, not knowing how to get back to the game, is pretty frustrating) I've not had a problem since.

Let us know how it plays out for you!

I can indeed get to that first screen - but from there I can't move the pointer with the arrow keys. I can still confirm whatever selection the pointer is on with the spacebar, but I can't get the pointer to move anywhere but the default position.

Thank you so much for your quick reply... hoping it's something easy to fix.
