haha, didn't know about this but 347 isn't 73766 in hexadec or vice versa

do you think there is some kind of other relation between the numbers, or that they were just mocking infocom?

Wow seems like an in-joke/easter egg? Never noticed that myself to be honest.

Exclamation Disappearing Items

Hello again guys! Thanks for helping me get the game to work last time

Unfortunately, I think I have a new problem.

Sort of Spoilers:
DragonSphere

Has anyone else ever had this problem too?

Resolved: Never mind guys I've figured it out. It turns out that the culprit was a corrupt save game! Thank you though. I hope that this helps anyone in the future. It's a good idea to backup not only normally but also at what you figure are important key points. Although I still have a good backup to continue, if I hadn't, I'd have to start over.

JAPO posted here a long time ago that he downloaded it because it was from Microprose. I did the same. I have never seen a bad Microprose game going all the way back to their Commodore 64 games!

Let's face it, Microprose means download on this site as far as I am concerned!

Dragonsphere will be available for free from GOG.com soon...

EDIT: Well, it was not available from GOG.com yet when I posted this yesterday, Frodo...

Default GOG version/iso

If you are like me and don't like GOG's installers/like to keep your dos folder tidy, this is for you. I have stripped and uploaded the GOG (free) Iso version in plain cd format here:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JANELTTC

Unpack to your dos directory and run dragon.bat in dosbox. It will mount the cd and play the game, all without having to run GOG's installer nonsense.

Enjoy!
