Re: Question plus feedback...

Well, I spoke to soon. I guess the algorithm limitations are not conducive to my Macbook because everytime I've tried to approach the chicken coop (or, i should say 'chicken coop gate'), I get a 'spinning Gwydion' who doesn't move and I've had this problem at places in the town. In addition, I have ...

Problems with playing on the Mac...

After first downloading a bad copy of the game that had glitches and malfunctions everywhere, I erased everything and started from scratch. However, since I know that you need to get a chicken feather, I've found a new problem -- on the Mac (at least my Macbook), you can not get to the right side of...

Re: Question plus feedback...Yippee!

Hey everybody! Yippee! Turned out my all my problems (almost :) ) were caused by a bad download (I've experienced similar problems -- usually graphics related -- in other games previously). I erased everything and started from scratch with a new download and I got none of the prior problems. I could...

Re: Question plus feedback...

Hi all, Yes, Gronager, I have played the Sierra games before, quite a few of them including KQ I-V and I am definitely one of the users that found the spells frustrating because, basically, everything had to be typed out verbatim -- e.g. a "can" instead of a "may" and you're zapp...

Re: Question plus feedback...

While some aspects of the game I still do have complaints about, but recognizing the amount of effort and talent involved in trying to update such a classic game, I do appreciate it while frustrated. However, as I've indicated in a previous reply, my game file is corrupted. Things I could do before ...

Re: In the Mac version, I can't climb....

Hi! Thanks for the tip! After my post, I sent another long one about how the game isn't working for me. As it turns out, I believe I've got a corrupted game; things I could do before saving -- like feed porridge to Man. -- I can't do after I restore (I get a "can't use that item here" erro...

Question plus feedback...

I thought the purpose of the "redux" was to upgrade the original to the current point and click style of game play. But, I'm not having much luck with this method. I point on the library book, expecting to it to open, be read, something...anything, some "action"! But, I get squat...

In the Mac version, I can't climb....

I'm playing the game on a Macbook 2Ghz Intel Core Duo running the latest version of Snow Leopard. I'm enjoying the game, for the most part, but am having terrible problems trying to get the "feet" to go where I want it to AND I can't get Gwydion to climb (as in "up the boxes" at ...

Levers (Bookshelf)

Hi!

I'm stuck at the levers. How do I find out which order (or which one) I pull to activate the door? All help is greatly appreciated!
As an aside, thanks to ADG for resurrecting and revamping my favorite game (and my Mom's!).

Thanks again,
Horus82
