popping the antwerp in qfg1
I saw this video on Google and I couldn't believe it. I've had Hero's Quest for 18 years and I never knew you could pop the antwerp.

I tried it afterwards and it works.
the trick so you don't have to multiple times is before you go to the next screen put the game on the lowest speed. Then type "use sword" as soon as you're in the middle of the screen. Don't know if it works on the VGA Version...

No you don't; you just have to be ready. Remember, as long as the parser window is open, time is frozen in the game. As to the VGA version, yes, it still works. And I can't believe you never found this out. It's a classic element in QfG lore; Dr. Cranium references it in QfG4 with his baby Antwerps.techie775 wrote:the trick so you don't have to multiple times is before you go to the next screen put the game on the lowest speed.

Well the first thing I thought of when saw it split into 5 antwerps was "hey that's like QFG4 Antwerps... And no I never knew cause I always took it as a joke where you die cause fighting an antwerp with a sword looks ridiculous.
If you pop the antwerp what happens if you trip the switch in the brigand hideout out? Or is that another Antwerp there? I could never tell...
