I'm not the guy whom you asked, but I'll tell you:

IMMORTAL is a terrific game if you like arcade adventures; that's exactly
what it is. It's quite well done, and looks VERY nice. If you don't like
to accurately position your guy before you cast a fireball, forget it.

HOWEVER: It is one of those British programs that (a) takes FOREVER to
load, (b) it apparently doesn't like you to put the data disk in df1:,
(c) although it uses an apparent custom DOS, see (a). WHY can't more games
that are NDOS load in seconds like the late great CARRIER COMMAND?

The graphics and sound on IMMORTAL are very well done, and the 3/4 view
is well-done also. The game just isn't my cuppa tea--I am fortunate enough
to shop at a computer store in which games are DEMOed first!
