Try the attachment now.

Yes, the game works fine for me without any special treatment. Did you download it anew for testing it with the other laptop? I don't believe that it's a download error, though.

[edit] You don't have subdirectories, have you? Create S1, S2, S3 and S4, and get another archiving program, best would be one that extracts also empty directories... [/edit]

Excellent. That last suggestion worked like a charm, Luchsen. I was thinking that the program was looking for something that wasn't there, such as save directories. Didn't imagine my archiver would selectively ignore them. Glad it was something so simple.

Going to get a better archiving program. In the meantime, it's time to play! Actually, I should work first, then play. Thanks for your time!

Great, now I'm relieved.

Will remove that useless attachment then.

After downloading the CD version (hey, 2 new levels!) I discovered my saves from the non-CD version won't work (bad header).

Fancy that.

Oh well, I was planning to start over and level up in a different way anyways so... the FMV kind of suck under DOSBox - they play for a few seconds then freeze. When they finally unfreeze they immediately skip the part that was "playing" while they were frozen. The speech is nice addition, though.

Back to Level 1 for me. In 2-3 hours I should be in the Werewolves castle wreaking havoc again :thumbs:

Finished it (the CD version).

WARNING!!!

There is an error that prevents saves to be loaded! Sadly it is a pretty random bug that prevents a save you just made to be loaded again. It dumps you back to DOS with a weird error message. The only way to avoid it is to save often, save on different slots and, as painful as it sounds, try to always load up the save state you just created, just in case. It can happen in every single level of the game.

Aside that the game is pretty easy once you get the Ssair form. It get ridiculously easy once you get the Grok form but that is close to the end so it doesn't really count.

My tips for having a good time with this game are:

- as soon as you get the Maorin form level him up a few times. It will make the boss fights much easier.
- don't forget to level up the human form from time to time. There are some monsters on some levels that are easy experience so try to kill them in the human form (use the Shuriken to kill them from a distance).
- the Potion of Power IS THE MOST PRECIOUS POTION IN THE ENTIRE GAME. It turns some boss battles from "unwinnable" to "easy as pie". DO NOT DRING IT if you don't have to. Spare one for the final boss, use the rest only during boss battles (4-Armed Skeleton Lord!)
- once you get the Ssair form you can dump or use up all the magic wands you have collected thus far
- never ever level up the useless forms like Cajun or the Orb

Hi, there,
Just DL and installed the game. This is my second attempt to pass SC.
All is Ok except no music setting allows me to play the game.
Never mind.
Actually I am using my headphones when gaming.

Pls , any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

During my progress I met the first monster which attacked me with some flashes.
Keeping in mind my wand has limited volume of fires I sent Maorin-the bear to kill the monster. As a result my Power meter decreased.
I want to restore the meter, trying to eat some berries-like, taking one and right-click onto portrait but my protagonist refused to swallow the fruit!

Why?

How I (if possible) may sleep or eat or what to restore my strength?

Thank You

So sadly no one from gigantic AB play or played this game, but lonely yoga.

Tears in my eyes and blood in my heart..

even the mighty Kmonster is silent...

Alone, alone always alone...very bad feeling

Rats!!!
