Downloaded and checked it. A very nice game with excellent graphics, however isometric view can be mistaking at times. Also getting used to controls takes some time. But gameplay is ok and spooky atmosphere adds up to the overall pleasure...

Hah! Ive just written my first review on site! Id give myself, let's say, 3 points of 25... :p

Ekhm... Why emailing Retrospec if you have the license in the manual...?

This game is licensed as freeware. This means you can give copies of it to your
friends or put it on web sites in its original, unaltered state - as it was
downloaded from the Retrospec website. You are not allowed to charge any kind
of money for downloading...blah blah blah...


I think in such cases there's no need for any additional actions...

Great. I will start to make more sites on the download-section soon. I just need to be finished with some more forum-features first.
But please people keep looking. So far we have around 200 MB's left to deal with. I still need to figure out just how we can finance this site...

Browsing various remakes sites recently I started to think why do I like this game so much (I havent played original). It resembled me some classic from the past, but I couldnt figure which. Now I know - one of my favourite Amiga titles - Heimdall 2. Almost identical graphic style (of course colour pallette and resolution are different).

Wanted to share this news with others. ^^ And bump this thread. Actually 95% of threads here need bumping. Or any discussion.

Came back to this one after a while (my usual manner, I never finish games in first try and rarely have patience to play over and over if I am stuck :P ).

32% is my current best and I am a bit lost, since in further stages game is non-linear.
