Great game so far, but I think there's a problem in episode 2 - when I go to find the hacksaw on the roof, it is not visible even though mousing-over that area calls up its description. Clicking there returns "Dont grab at thin air". Am I doing something wrong?

As an addendum to my previous post, I restarted the game and found the hacksaw where it was supposed to be. The problem occurred only after I had done quite a few other things in the game before coming to get the hacksaw. Oh well...

hello ppl........ the game runs smoothly until i tried to look in my inventory it blinks and selects only the first item in possesion...... no proper access to inventory = unplayable, that's really strange since i had no problem running through the ms-dos prompt in winXP like it was mentioned in the review.....

Rallier- I noticed a similar issue. Sometime it seemed to me that the game was sensing two mouse clicks instead of one. With some patience, I was able to make it work most of the time by just clicking very quickly and lightly on the mouse (not a perfect solution, but it worked most of the time).

The editor(s) need to be more objective. Classic games recieves 5, games like this should just not get a 5.

If that's how you feel, that's why there's a user rating, and you're free to submit reviews to the site for other games. It'd be useful if you decided to say why you thought it didn't deserve to be counted in the top 20% of games.
