Yes, and i remember doing mass cleaning in the castle, by killing all the guards i saw on my way and discarding them like this, so that they would never bother me again  Quote: Btw: Can't quite put my finger on it, but somehow the graphics remind of the Game Boy. Maybe it's just the yellow colours and the low resolution. Well, it surely does look outdated today, but somehow this game gave me different feelings back in my time. I'm not really sure what it is. Perhaps it's the atmosphere which somehow stimulates your imagination and mentally enhances the poorly developed scenery of the game. I'm not sure. Eitherways, it's not a typical spectrum isometric game as it would always get out of line somehow, and it was noticed not only by me, but many spectrum veterans. ----- Cheer up!
