I am a real Raymond E. Feist fan, so when I found out that this game was free to download on the net, I just had to get it.
The problem is however I just cant seem to get it to run (not under windows or linux). Have anyone here tried this game? And if so what did you use to run it? dosemu? wine? please tell me if you have. I am actually thinking on installing win 3.11 on an old box to play this game.
So if anyone have got this game to run please tell me.

Looks like you can get it from The Underdogs (http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=116) as "Although the CD version is for sale for only $5 at E CD-ROM shop, it is the *cut-down*, "Sierra Classic" version that includes neither the interview with Raymond Feist nor the CD music."
It's a DOS game, so I would suggest to try using DOSemu (http://dosemu.org/) to run it, I've gotten many DOS games working with DOSemu and a Windows95 boot disk...

Havent tried dosbox, but I cant get it to run with dosemu, think perhaps it needs windows. And wine dont want to play nicely with me.
But I will give it a few more tries.

Ha ha success!
Got it working now:) For some reason it wont work under dosemu, I have to use xdosemu to make it work. However not perfect yet as i dont get sound, but I will survive for now.
Looks like I got quite a bit of gaming in front of me:)
