I too am having trouble with the stupid Condor!!! No matter what the designers say, they made it way too difficult to solve!!!

Does anyone have a saved game for the condor puzzle with the correct points? If not, I will continue to solve it, and once I get to the scene where the Condor drops Graham off, I will upload the save game for that spot.

That's what you get for eating the magic porrigde in front of the starving wife.

I always thought the magic porridge was better than any of the three daventry treasures. :p

For some reason I am reminded of Jodo Kast who once stated his demo could only be found by people who were NOT trolls. :lol

Anyway, save yourself the trouble. The marked spot is right here:

I have the same problem. I go to the spot marked in the picture, but when I jump, all I get is a message saying "These rocks are too treacherous to climb." I use the Hand Icon to jump and I know (or at least think I know) I'm aiming for the bird because the little red dot on the Hand Icon is pointed right at it. Any more advice? I've tried about five times now and still can't hitch a ride. is there a right time to click? Should the condor's shadow be over me or just about over me or something? It's very frustrating. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

When does the condor appear? I've been waiting in front of the cave forever, and it's never shown up. Is there only a certain time when we're allowed to do this?

The condor starts appearing when you've acquired the chest and the mirror.

So you *must* get the shield last? That's no good. The player should be able to obtain the three treasures in any order.

The original AGI game did allow you to get them in any order, but the SCI remake (which AGDI's remake is based on) requires you to get the shield last. It's debatable which was the better design, but either way, it wouldn't be the only thing in KQ1 that fails to stand up to modern scrutiny.
