Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

I made a small list of the objects we still did not use (tell me if I forgot something):

red substance (you can't take it, but it has weight 0 so maybe you have to use it somehow)
wooden stake
old laundry (it contained a treasure , but you can also take it)
purple sphere
old poker
thumbscrews
spent ...

I used it, but you need to have the purple sphere first - so thanks for the save game.

Great :thumb: so the bug of the zombie no longer a problem because we can get rid of him before the bug occurs

The question is what is the use of the sphere?

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

"Clear web with trident" does not woork unfortunately.



Could you decipher something there as well?


It's still a work in progress but here is where I am currently with the deciphered text.

You also found that in the code or did you manage to use it?

Did you also find something on how to remove the plug?

Interesting. I'm not at home right now, but I'll definitely try when I get back.

Good job :thumb: Normally I'm always willing to try a game but 4400 locations did put me off a bit.

Yes that's also a possibility.

I thought about the body in the torture room, but did not succeed in finding a way.

I'm afraid that I'm out of ideas at the moment with this game.

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

Sorry for the late reply but yesterday I was visiting a comic convention.

About the rider, yes the rider is the angel of death. See below screenshot. Note I just put the rider in a random place I did not meet him here nor do I know how to meet him:

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

Strange I can upload your image without any problem, but each time I save something to the file, exit dosbox, relaunch dosbox and want to mount the image again I get the same error.
The files are not read only.

I compared your original file with my file and the game overwrites everything from the ...

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

one question more about DOSBOx the first time I mounted the image it worked fine, but when I try it now I get the message "cannot create drive from file" any idea what I'm doing wrong? Your file works fine but I can't use the file I've uploaded with the manure.

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia


Ah, so we can't actually take holy water?

Its like the hot water which becomes the cool water when you take it with the carafe.


I still think that burning has better chances. The game says that the web can't be cut, and why there would be such verb as 'ignite'? Is there something to ignite ...

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia

When you take holy water from the font with the carafe it is called blessed water.

I don't think it is possible to kill the spider or eat the meal. I've tested it by removing the spider from the room, but you still get killed by the spider when you enter EAT MEAL.
I did remove the web to test if ...

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia


I have forwarded the map and the saves (I have made another one at Zombie) to Total DOS Collection - hopefully the expert who has fixed "Witch Hunt" would get something out of it.

Yes that would be great.

Some hex memory addresses which may help them :

8cf1 is the location where you are.
