Very nice conversion of the original, despite the known limitations. The menu navigation is a bit unusual and complicated at first, as it is more reminiscent of a graphic text adventure with a mixture of the typical Lucasfilm Scumm elements. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether they warm up to it. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 01:23:27. Subscription to our YouTube or Twitch channel is welcome. 馃檪

Ok, got it.... this D42 is a framework. Hence the similar look and feel and files (like tt.prg).

I'll make a ef3 out of it this weekend.... I will ask over at forum64.de for testing

Have to agree with Jammer. Ok GFX - but playability is horrible (if even existent). Too bad really :/

Nice job on the GFX conversions! Playability is quite clunky and loading times are horrible though. Hope there will be an EasyFlash version.


1st glance, it looks identical to Rabenstein_C64_40th < which I recently made and EF3 version of. It's the same Dr Doom loader, it's also from the same author ? Stefan Vogt https://8bitgames.itch.io/rabenstein

I will look over the weekend.

Nice graphics, ok sid covers, but total failure in whats supposed to look like the scumm engine. Unplayable.

I take it back, file M5 and SQ have the same tune, so it's just 3, and from unknown authors
User Comment
Submitted by iAN CooG on 14 December 2023
Luckily the files are easily un-exomizable.
There are 3 known tunes (ok 4 counting that 2 are subtunes of the same sid) in this and 4 unknown ones
M5.sid
M6.sid
M9.sid
SQ.sid
