Finally!
Back in 1999 when it was originally released our PC wasn't powerful enough to run it properly and years later when I was able to pay for my own hardware the game couldn't run at all because of XP incompatibility issues. But I never gave up hope... Today, about 15 years after the original release I finally was able to finish this game. Thank you GOG for providing the chance to fulfill one of my long overdue goals! As for the game itself - it's a great experience. I little hard at times, considering the current standards. For the first half it was pretty hard to track what and where should be done next. In addition the save system is equally unforgiving - a save location appears at specific points in the game, usually prior or after some important event, but you can use them ONLY ONCE. In combination with the fact that you aren't always exactly sure where and/or how to reach your next objective this is pretty hardcore (and annoying at couple of places). Talk about challenge :) Other than that the story is interesting, nothing too fancy - main character's wife gets abducted by the villain along with most of the young town women and our hero begins his quest to get her back and punish the evil doer. Some additional interesting plot elements unravel along the way and so on... All in all, the game is great and 15 years later I'm more than satisfied. If you are up for a challenge don't hesitate - $5.99 is a steal!
