Not bad! The version number says 0.98 though and sometimes I can not save a games. For example if I cast a spell... the A-S will not save and when I quit also can not save... annoying! Sometimes all I have to do is move to another location and THEN I can cast spells and still save. Anyhow. SPOILERS and ftp site for game solutions For the person who is low on cash. I hang out in the Magan Underworld near the outpost of Lansk (south of the lake). There is a magic pool for recovering power. Just a few steps away is the Lansk outpost that takes you down to the Lansk underground where there are Pikemen with gold, a healer, armour shop, weapons shop, paperwork, and some spells including dragonstones. So I would recover my power... kill pikemen in Lansk underground, when power gets low scurry back to the magic pool in the Magan underground. Charge things up, heal and back down to LU. Takes awhile but from the Magan underground you can reach most places with a minimum of hassles. I've almost to the end ( I think ), been just about to all the locations, including dragon valley, and am almost ready to try finding the BEAST FROM the PIT. One last thing... if you find ANY magic item... do NOT SELL IT. It can be recharged with the sun magic spell... charger. I discovered this too late and sold the ice wand when it ran out of charges. Below is a ftp site for game solutions. I have looked at it and there is a sol.dragonwrs file. I haven't gotten it because I KNOW I would look at it! But if anyone is truly frustrated...
