Dang, can't wait to play this game. But since my current computer is too slow to run dosbox, let alone at 10000 cycles, I'll just have to wait until I get home... :wallbash:

Does anyone know if this game is a "pixel hunt" kind of game? I got it up and running, and it looks (and sounds) really nice, but if it's a pixel-hunt-er, I'm not sure if I got the patience.

Edit: It doesn't seem to have smart text, so you're left to guess if the cursor points at something of interest. Whether that's good or bad remains to be seen. Also, the options menu says "speech on" but I hear no speech. Having a sb16, I chose sb (later).

It's not a pixel hunter. Anything you need to find is quite obvious. Why not give it a try?

There is no speech in the game, but you can see text when you talk to people. There is some nice organ music that you here as well.

:D

Thanks :) and I think I'll do just that :ok:

Speech? Who need stinkin' speech?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Frodo @ Aug 28 2006, 02:19 PM) [snapback]251467[/snapback]</div>There is speech in the original with A+ voice acting. I had this game when I was a teen and found it again on Lost Treasures (I think) france with speech but I can't remember where the site is otherwise I'd link it. It's out there though..and it works with dosbox if you tweek it a bit. Personally I think the speech is not worth missing as far as the phantom experience goes. Still...kudos for having the game...always a favorite of mine.

Actually I found it. http://www.abandonware-france.org/cartes/

But it looks like yet another site which is falling apart. Agamesroom, frechkiss...now this one...they're all disappearing.

Yeah it's a pity. this was the only site I could find anywhere with the Return of the Phantom CD version w/ speech. And I looked for hours...found it about a month ago. But...needless to say... it's gone now.

Can someone help me? I tried to download the copy protection book twice already and it won't open! When I open it in Acrobat Reader v4.0 it says "There was an error opening this document. This viewer cannot decrypt this document." I was downloading it in Firefox too... Is there any way to view it (program... text...)

:sos:
