Hey everybody, just thought I'd make my first post on this site.
Albion is a great game, one of the first ever comp games I ever played and enjoyed. It is my deffinately my fav and always will be.
They just dont make great games like this anymore.

I bought a copy of this after playing the demo when it first came out in 1996, after losing the cd I bought another copy in 1997 and then finally in around 2000 I purchased another copy which I have kept.

If you haven't played it and you're unsure whether you should a word of advice, stop doig what you're doing and find a copy right now and start playing.

I've probably played Albion all the way through about 10 times (roughly once a year). The glitch that was mentioned where the game locks up when you're talking to frill and a dagger flies across the screen is a known glitch and has happened to me at least once on every comp ive played on. It's seemingly a random event, and all i can recomed is that you save before the council meeting.

The only problem I have is that there are no english fan sites for albion and wont be a sequel or another game like it. :angry:

(SPOILER WARNING)
<strike>For those of you who are having difficulty with the game there is a bug/easter egg that allows you to get all of the best armor for drirr early in the game. </strike>
(CHEAT/SPOILER WARNING)
<strike>Hint: It involves running and clicking at the last moment to increase your reach in 2D to grab things over benches. k:</strike>
