Review + download

Thought this was abandonware. I downloaded it some time ago from Abandonia

It's freeware now, so it belongs here on AR.

Anyways, it's a pretty good puzzle game.

Pretty good? It's the best!

Well, I made a little mistake in thinking downloading the win-version would grant me the "better" version.
So I failed... I got a crappy Mac-Version requiring this strange "Executor" for Windows, which I did install.
And so it's crappy by all means : A tiny window in b/w and no speed regulation make it impossible to get any far. I was lost in the map of the sun, couldn't get any hint from the picture-sentence puzzles and the "99 enchantments" got faster than my mouse accelaration by half the numbers.  

But now I'm playing the Dos version, a version for a "real" PC... much, much better!

Off course, the game is superb

Downloaded the DOSversion, started the game using Dosbox. Everything seems to work fine, but I didn't get any sound (I checked "sound" and unchecked it later in the file menu, both with the same result).
Any clues?

[A. J. Raffles]

Does the game actually have sound? I don't think I ever heard anything...

[Tom Henrik]

It doesn't have sound that I am aware of. Which is a good thing, in my opinion. You really need to think in this game, and it is hard to do so with 1980s beep beep gaming music playing non-stop around you

The game has "sound".
But it's not more than a clicking noise sometimes when you hit a word in the crossword puzzles.
