I am interested in this game, but know very little about it. If anyone is playing it, is it fun and is there any action parts? I cannot do action, so I stay away from them. Thanks. Vicki

Vicki,

There are no action parts. It's a dark (not happy I mean) game.

Well, I've just started it and so far it isn't a barrel of laughs. Since you've played it, MaG, I'm wondering if, on your computer, Timothy emerged from the sewer through the floor, not the sewer exit...and if the characters were sometimes missing feet in the attic.

I can verify that.It looked exactly like your description on my computer as well. Old graphic card, a Radeon x600 in my case is the reason I guess. You have to cope with it. The glitch is not that frequent.

I can verify that too... (missing feet as if the character was hiding behind foreground graphics)

I thought maybe it was because I was playing on a netbook with a resolution of 800x600 - probably not really designed for that resolution/onboard graphic card these days- but was just happy that it worked at all on my netbook.

I don't know if this is good, bad or indifferent but I'm playing with an NVIDIA GeForce 9100 video card (which I guess is the same as a graphics card). I did turn off shadows and anti-aliasing and run program compatibility. The result was a big notice that low-end hardware was found when I started the game.

Anyway, footless people look odd and I wondered for a second or two where Timothy was because he was almost hidden behind something and definitely not coming out of that hole. He really is a jerk, isn't he? So far, anyway.

Since you're there, billy, how is your new game coming? I can't wait!

Gil.
