Hi,

A few days ago I found this old game again and started to play it. I do remember I played it once or twice a long time ago. (by now I start 2 remember why I played it not much...

And just like the old days I still don't know what to do! Well... running around, killing some dudes and collecting items is for sure!

Is there anybody out there who can tell me more about the in's & out's of this game?? So far I collected nothing more then a bronze key and a blue cross.

And are there any other graphics (background I mean!) than this grey maze with grey floors and grey walls??

grtz,

Mafcase

According to the box there're other colored areas as well ... never got there tho ..

Anyway, to me there's a weird kinda x-factor to the game.. I would see myself playing it some day again.

If i remember well, this game has a or some severe known bugs which make it very difficult to play. Again if i remember well, game play has some annoying flaws which make the game experience a bit illogical.

But i am still unsure... Maybe i am confused and i am mixing 2 different games...

Same here, my memories are also a little faded, but there are other coloured levels and some houses, a town, a castle, some people and more of the same ... but nothing which dramasticly improves the gameplay ;-)
