- is proud to present:
-
- THE ICE PRINCESS
-
-
- I. System Requirements
- The Ice Princess should run on any Amiga with AmigaOS 1.3
- or higher and 1 MByte of RAM. "Should" means that I only had the chance to
- test the game on an A500, A2000 and A4000 under AmigaOS 1.3 and 3.0. If this
- demo runs on your system, then the registered game should run, too.
-
- II. Limitations in this demo
- This is only a demo of the game! The demo has the following
- limitations:
- - You can't save or restore your game position
- - Scripting has been disabled
- - The size of the game area is limited
- - There are no built-in hints
- Anything else works like in the registered version.
-
- III. Getting started
- To start the demo, just double-click the game's icon. If your computer
- should crash before the game opens its screen, try to run it from the CLI, but
- remember that the game needs a very large stack (about 50000 bytes),
- so type Stack 50000 before starting the game.
- The game requires the diskfont.library and the mathieeedoubbas.library.
- Make sure that both libraries are in your LIBS: drawer, otherwise the game
- might crash.
-
- IV. First steps
- After the game has loaded, you'll see the prompt (>) on your screen.
- The prompt tells you that the game is waiting for your input. You can control
- the game using plain English sentences such as TAKE THE BALL, LOOK AT THE
- FROG or ASK THE IDIOT ABOUT THE DEAD MOUSE.
- As your first input, you should type LOOK AT THE CHILDREN. Press RETURN to
- finish your input. Try to go NORTH. You'll notice that you need ice-skates
- to walk on the ice, so GO NORTHWEST and PUT ON THE ICE-SKATES.
- Yo can now go EAST on the lake. APPROACH THE GIRL and follow
- her NORTH. You're now north of the lake. Good luck!
-
- V. It's Shareware!
- The Ice Princess is shareware! This means that if you want
- more than this demo, you'll have to pay for it - 10,-- DM, to be more exact.
- Please send only cash and only D-Mark. Packaging and postage
- is included in the price, so it should be a fair price.
- Anyway, I released this game not as shareware to earn money with it... it's
- just because some dealers offer single PD programs on one disk for the price
- of five disks and that I want to keep my games from such a fate.
- Furthermore, each registered game comes along with some "goodies" you'll
- need to solve the game, plus a built-in hintbook which helps you when you're
- stuck and a special enhanced OS2.0-Version.
- To register, send DM 10,-- to:
-
- RĂ¼diger Hanke
- An der Marienlinde 10
- D-48291 Telgte, GERMANY,
-
- You'll receive your game disk, a printed instruction manual, and the Amiga
- Mipric Story System Reference Sheet. The game disk also contains a special
- interpreter version for OS2.0 and higher. This version supports ASL-requesters
- and allows you to change the environment of the game (screenmode, colours,
- font).
-
- VI. Updates
- Yes, there will be updates! I will keep both the interpreter and
- the story up to date and offer free updates from time to time. So
- when you discovered a spelling mistake (sorry about that), bugs or if you
- think there should be another way to solve a certain puzzle... write me!
