At least read the quick reference under the Help ("?") menu; otherwise you won't get anywhere. You can go back and read the docs when things start happening that you don't understand.
The documentation contains a great deal of vital information. You should read it all eventually to avoid a lot of frustration when playing the game.
- Watch your fatigue when in combat. It's the unlabelled candle under your silhouette. Press space to rest.
- The game is NOT REAL TIME. Clicking faster in combat won't do anything except make you lose track of things. If you stand there doing nothing, nothing else will happen either.
- Always keep an eye on the scrolling text display in the lower right. It keeps you aprised of what's going on.
- Read the Quick Reference card under the help ("?") menu. Otherwise you will get west of nowhere fast.
The documentation is in ClarisWorks format. This was the easiest format I could use that would preserve the fonts and graphics. If you have absolutely no way to read ClarisWorks files, contact me as listed in the Online Help, and I can arrange to get you the docs in another format.
Why didn't I use Microsoft Word format, you ask? Well, that probably would have ensured the largest user base could read the docs, but well, Miscrosoft Word doesn't run on AV Macs (which is what I have). Gotta love Microsoft.
If the game's icons don't show up in The Finder, try rebuilding the desktop by holding down Command and Option as your Mac starts up.
One final note- yes, the game requires a lot of RAM, but it also works fine under both Virtual Memory and RamDoubler, so most users should have no trouble using it.
It lets you drop files anywhere you want on the desktop.
Imagine that.
Introducing Windows 95.
It has a trash can you can open and take things back out of again.

It lets you use more that eight characters to name your files.

Yes, Windows 95 makes it easier for people to use their computers. It's a little more graphical. A little more intuitive. It even has a trash can. In short, it makes a PC a little more like a Macintosh - you know, the Macintosh we built back in 1984.
Compare it to the Macintosh of 1996, and you'll discover a decade of difference.
