Inescapable death

So the game looked nice and full of potential.
Now I'm in Shapeir, in the screen with the Saurus seller, and if I leave that screen, whatever the direction, the game tells me I'm an idiot in the game over screen, and seeing how I saved on that very same screen and it is my only save, I'm fucked.
Game looked nice.

P.S. : I wanted to attach a screenshot, but it's bugged, so I can't...

It's only inescapable if you have less than 5 dinars. If you do, buy the saurus the salesman has been trying to sell you repeatedly. You can bargain down the price by answering yes to his first question (do you want to buy the saurus) and then repeatedly no until he goes as low as 5.

OK. But I have uninstalled the game and erased the installation folder, so I lost my save file.

Oh, well, thanks anyway.

It's not truly inescapable. Due to a bug, if you wait until the night comes, he closes the shop and you are able to get away without buying the saurus.

Nevertheless, an adventure game in which you can die for a reason you have no control over tends to kill the fun for me.

But certainly you really, really, really wanted that saurus, right? You just forgot how much you wanted it.

Well I really did, yes, but I didn't have enough money.
