You'll have to host the picture elsewhere I'm afraid...
And I absolutely loved that game. Including that particular screen (even though many people complain that it slowed the game down, nag-nag-nag). And the music was great.

I've never played this one, but I'd really like to.
I remember when I was younger, I read a pictured walkthrough of this game from a games magazine ( ) and thought that it's awesome and I want to play it someday.

re-hosted.
One of my favorite games. The music and soft graphics really did it for me. This game captured london in a wonderful rainy way.

I take it that it's The Case of Serrated Scalpel?
Haven't played it. Any comments on whether it manages to do justice to Arthur Conan Doyle's books and characters (rather than being loosely inspired by them to create a different mood and different type of story)? I thought Silver Earring was a real success in that regard.

That was a very good game. There was just one small bug.

There was another bug. I can't remember the location but in one of the shops, if you touched the light fixture hanging from the cieling, the game would shut down.

Same problem here. Almost every game I tried works with DOSBOX. Unfortunately, this one doesn't. Gonna try it on my "old" AMD XP 1600+ dual boot with WIN98+Dos 6.22 and Windows ME
