Just a correction about disabling traps. The paving stones (buttons on floor) and the other buttons on the walls do disable traps, but not always where you are.

It may be in another hallway or room...not necessarily where you can see.

Sometimes traps (like the fireballs coming from the walls) need to be dodged using good timing. Take your team through just one at a time. They may or may not be disabled. The triggers are working, just not always where you are in that room or hallway.

I'm playing on Win 7 with the patch (you'll need to do a search offsite for it.) Without the patch it will crash after about 1-2 mins.

Graphics are old and pixelated, but doesn't bother me. Very fun gameplay, but it's buggy. There are buttons on the floor and walls to disable traps, but they don't always work.

If you are careful and plan your attacks, it's much more fun than to just bombard everybody and lose all your health and potions. Interesting voice acting that is fun and unusual. You play with a party of four and it's easy to keep track of them and their special skills and items. Each one plays an important role.

Storyline is the standard RPG evil guy kidnaps villagers and turns them into monsters to kill you. But, it's fun to interact with the NPCs. You cannot carry a conversation...they just say something to you that you can hear too with the voice acting. Cool stuff.

The game is working but there's no sound and music.
Is there maybe somewhere a fix?
I like this game, the graphics are even today beautiful (if you like old school graphics)
