Thank You. I got it to work. I hope o find the ISO for this.

This is so amazing, but it had to happen some day (or so I'd been hoping for all these years). I tried the demo when it was brand new and instantly fell in love with it, although I actually just played a couple of minutes of the game, inside the castle. One thing I remember was the loading time when going up/down the stairs, and while it was a delight to watch the hand-drawn quality of the image that appeared, the waiting time made me forfeit the game altogether, not possessing the hardware to run the game normally.
I recognized the game immediately when I saw the screenshots here on Abandonia, and after installing I browsed through the files till I found the loading screens to make sure this really was the game I'd once played. Now I'm sitting here with a pounding heart, not yet daring to start the game knowing that the sweet memories I've kept in all these years will be crushed without mercy, the same way it did when I played P.O.D. (Planet of Death), re-released by GOG.COM, a few months ago, a game which I also had keen memories of, and had been playing everyday on my Win95 computer back then.

Thank you for letting me share my memories of delight with you guys, and special TY goes to ABANDONIA.COM and the three fellows allowing me to experience this meeting of chance!

Nevermind, spacebar is the toggle switch for wielding a weapon. Maybe I mashed it when training in the barracks.
Anyway, you can install the game anywhere you like if you edit the .INI file.

Question:

- abandonia's version version number is?
- does it cry if you install it on NT-based OP-system?

My god the combat mechanics in this game is just aweful!
Misclick - run towards the enemy - run away - misclick again run towards the enemy. Gee I'll give this one a pass

The actual click-combat part is a direct ripoff from Diablo. If you liked it there, you shouldn't complain here.

Yes but Diablo was much more forgiving about misclicks than this game.
Another annoying feature is that the character walks towards the enemy if he is too close. Do you know how annoying that is for a melee character trying to kill an archer?

Irregardless I'm gonna give this game another chance, I had too much hope for it to give up right away.

Nope, Diablo (the first one) is way more unforgiving (from the level where the lightning-casting demons start to appear). Well, if you want my opinion.

And in any of the Diablos if you misclick walk towards the point you clicked.
'Though if you say your character moves without even clicking if enemy is near, then it is simply not true. Otherwise I'd be happy if my melee char would walk towards ranged enemy as that's efficient, thus wanted (how else'd I kill that ranged one and gain the exp?). If your problem is that You are the archer and you walk towards the enemy... Then you're playing it wrong. Bump up your stealth, and you can stand right on the toe of the enemy without being noticed, and do oneshot kills.
