What a shock!! That's from the mid-90's, isn't it? We will have to add it to our Windows 7 and Games list!


Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Yes Jenny I've read about it and it should be fine whistle

well I can not say until I'm at that "spot". But as they wrote there is an "easy" workaround.

Cheers sherlock

Interesting. I have the game but of course never played it. Maybe I'll give it a go.

Thanks.

Well I have seen the end of "Watchmaker" and none of mentioned problems occured for me.

It runs perfectly all the way to the "bitter" end.


Cheers sherlock

Now it's time to play a "new" game, never played (by me) before wave12

It was published in 2001 or 2002, depending on your country (2002 in North America).

The CD for the 2002 version list Windows 2000 and XP along with Windows 95/98/ME.

Lagavulin,
Does your computer have 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7. I've added Watchmaker to the Windows 7 and Games thread, and would like to add whether you played using 32-bit or 64-bit.
