I have been happily reliving my childhood for about a week now.

There's nothing like old Sierra games to make a person smile. Games nowadays, while visually stunning, lack the intellectual appeal of the old games.

Using the smiley icons in the forums will take a fair bit of persuasion. They are somewhat creepy.

Also - if possible, the site needs Wishbringer (Infocom), if it's not being sold in some classic games package somewhere by someone. I Googled it, and didn't find an orderable game, but I'm sure that doesn't mean much for copywrite purposes.

I still have the goodies that came with the original game, joy.

Oh, and it's nifty that there's a forum for amateur art. Thank you for that, too.

Hi and welcome to the site!

Do you have a copy of Wishbringer ? If you do and would like to upload it to the site, please send a PM to Kosta or Tom Henrik. They'll give you any other information you may need.
If you would even be so kind to write a review and take some screenshots you'll be instantly famous on the board ! k:

Speaking of smilies I think we all agree that the most hideous one is :Tom: ...

Have a nice stay with us! :bye:

I have it. Somewhere.
I'd love to write a review, but what sort of screenshots does one need for a text-based game? =P

Just do one every 6-7 sentances or so...

No really, 1 or maybe 2 is just fine.

Chinkyaku. Welcome on the forum.
Please excuse my good meant, but failed attempt. I used the wrong word, my knowledge of Japanese is pretty limited yet. Chinkyaku sounds a little cold.
Instead I meant - daikangei!
(I hope it's the right word this time :whistle

Kon banwa (And that's as far as my English goes, except for some little jokes I pulled on the names in NF and the word Doukutsu )
Oy, enough rambling. Here's wishbringer. Manual is here. Note the animal behind the rightmost tombstone on page 9
