Please note I am using someone else's account, see address at bottom.

I think that Leprechaun needs all the memory it can get.  We have
a 1 MB Mac II, and I had to take out all the extras (DAs, cdevs,
etc) to get it to run.

I have also managed to solve both "The Dalek" and "Good Luck".
They take some thought, and each has a trick, but they are not
impossible.  If you want the solutions send me mail.  If I get
enough requests, I'll post the solutions.

Also, I just wanted to say that the shareware fee of $59 to
get the complete version is way too much.  Yes, it's a neat idea
and the colors and characters are done fairly well.  But the
leprechaun moves way too slow (in color), the key commands sometimes
have to be repeated, and once a level has been figured out there is no
real reason to play it again.  Oh well, just my opinion.
