Thanks for sharing this. It's been a long long time since I played through the series in my youthful days. Let it be known that the speech/mouth icon is still worth all the laughs when used in desperation when all other options are exploited. I love it. I’ve posted a screenshot in another thread.

Status : Offline | I downloaded the game, installed it, and started playing just a very little to see if it works OK.
All seems to be a 100%.
I even checked the Save/Load mechanism which also seems to work properly.
CONGRATULATIONS - it seems to be a fun game.

Status : Offline | I have had a lot of trouble with my elderly computer lately – not surprisingly – and even worse with my Outlook Express !!!
It seems that there has not been a single post on ANYTHING for at least 243 hours ( can't quite tell since we are on a different time belt).
I am wondering whether over this weekend, people are just busy with other activities – or whether my computer &/or the JA Forums are having technical troubles ????
