Reply To: Initial Confusion and Frustration on Saves

It says in the manual that they want you to “relax and enjoy playing the game, not worry about saving games”. It sounds like this didn’t really work out too well.

I’ve not looked into this copying save games mechanic yet. There was an addendum sheet to the manual which literally says not to use it as it only copies your inventory and not the location. Possibly a bug in an early release? I’ve not got to this temple yet, maybe I need to find a patch before I do…

I’m using a walkthrough already anyway. It’s not that easy a game even with that to follow and it does save a whole heap of trial and error. There are so many frustrating aspects to LBA but I’m still enjoying it – can’t think of much else I’ve played that’s quite like it. The nearest would be those old isometric games like Alien 8.
