ReplyDeleteOh how this takes me back...
No, no, don't quit. Think of your 12 kids, 3 wives and 2 mistresses. You just can't do it.

Nikolas, it's a gnome, not a person, technically. :) Glad you enjoy the retro thing, too.
Bah, who needs codes. I played this game 7 times through start to finish with continuing "2nd quests" without suing any codes.
ReplyDeletePS, Contra rocks hard. Best game EVER (fact).

Ok. Here. Just make sure you get the +2 longsword. Oh, and better wear the enchanted chanmail of the gay bard and grab a handful of healing scrolls too...
ReplyDeleteAnything heartless enough to take a man's working pick must be deadly.

The one next to the vorpal blade.
