I have never used Amazon for downloads but it should walk you through the process. You would need to contact them or anyone else you download from if you have difficulties. There should be a support link in a confirmation email I would think.

It shows up as unavailable on Amazon when I looked, if you can't get it there you can click on the banner on the top of the forum and they have it.

Amazon has their own download manager. You have to download that first and install in your computer.
Then buy the game and click download.
Open the download manager and it will download the game and install it to where you want it to. luck

I've downloaded Lost Horizons and I'm playing it with no problems. However, I downloaded it from The Adventure Shop (please use the banner or button above to access). They email you the links, rather than using a download manager.

YMMV - your mileage may vary.

ETA: they also have The Book of Unwritten Tales on sale, which I'd thoroughly recommend... oh, and it's being advertised on this site too!

I have downloaded many many games from The Adventure Shop ( click on the banner on this site ), Amazon, and, GOG.

I now prefer it since I cannot find these games in my area in any of the usual stores you would expect to find them!

Use their respective Download Manager whenever you can - makes it a "one click" download and it keeps track of your downloads.

They use your email to send you an unlocking Key you will need to play the game.

Everyone's experience may be different but it has worked flawlessly for me. snicker


It's not the years honey, it's the mileage!

Beerhead,

I bought and downloaded Lost Horizon from Amazon awhile ago. I didn't experience any problems with the download or the game. It helps to have a fast download connection because the download might take awhile without it. It was a fun game. Go for it!
