Revised: August,
2003

Game Play:        
For 2002 released games – On early released games, place the CD gold tinted side down on the CD drive. On
newly released games, play the game using the black side down. Right click and explore the CD drive in My
Computer and read about the hints/tips/tricks/making of… The game needs to be
played in 640×480 screen area setting and at 32 bit True Color. There is no installation of
the game and runs directly from the CD. Just open or double click (if auto-run
is off on the computer) the DarkFall.exe. The Load, Save and Quit buttons are found in
the top right corner of the screen. I recommend making a new folder with Dark
Fall Saves as label on either the desktop or at ‘My Documents’. Open it and
place the saved games in it. There is no save or load available during the introductory
or end sequences.

For 2003 released games – The
installation is the usual procedure. There is a large file that is installed
midway the process that might seem to stop the installing process. Wait a while
and the installation process proceeds normally after that large file. After
installation, CD in the drive is not needed to play the game.

The game is point and click manipulation. Subtitles can be
launched using F1 and must be pressed whenever the game is launched. To talk to
the ghosts a "SAY" button will appear at the bottom right corner of the screen.
Type in your questions or statements. This is required at the end of the game to
read an incantation. There are several gadgets necessary in the game: Lantern,
Tracker (finds electromagnetic source), Goggles (use when the tracker shows
peak activity), CCTV (found in Room 2D and used to view several rooms in the
hotel) and the Thermocamera.

Some of the atmosphere described
such as phone calls, energy orbs floating, ambient sounds happens at random and
may or may not experience them as I did at the time you visit a certain place.

Listen to a message from your
brother Pete Crowhurst. Something is wrong, very wrong… I am in
Dorset…. with 2 students from Weymouth University – Polly and Nigel, ghost
hunters….. I need you to come here!  Whatever they have been hunting
has found them, found me too… Take the train from Paddington to
Weymouth and then take a cab to Dowerton station…. I really need your

on the ground. Came from London in ’41, had breathing problems.
The Dorchester Messenger dated May 16, 1947 wrote about 6 people that vanish
from hotel. The police believed that the owner, Mr. George Crabtree is
directly involved. I can see others. I can help you. The others are
hoping that you can help them. One of them knows you, your brother. He
just arrived and is still confused… I am Timothy Pike. I am always at the

I never imagined I would have to put these words
down on paper. I wish I did not have to write this note… but something
must be said in the way of an explanation. Oh what have I done… it’s too
late for sympathy. I nleased, it tricked me…. I promise, I had no
intentions to let it loose, why would I. Its here now. I foolishly thought
that perhaps… well… perhaps it would bring Arther back. It would
whisper at my door, it would creep and hide in the dark shadows of the
hotel, it would conjure up the dead for its pleasures, and feeding, but
all the time I thought that I had some power over it. The ancient runes
hold the key to its bondage, if only……

will find out what I mean soon…. …bye….

Listen
to a message from your brother, Pete. I have something
important to tell you. I have to tell you soon… I have completely forgotten…
must not be important…. I will be home in 2 days… The hotel development for
