It gets as far as the title screen asking me if I want to watch the demonstration or play a game.

I've been looking for them everywhere, but to no avail - well, almost. I've actually found an .shk file of Wraith here: <a href="http://apple2.org.za/gswv/a2zine/GS.WorldView/v2000/Sep/Archives/">http://apple2.org.za/gswv/a2zine/GS.WorldView/v2000/Sep/Archives/</a>, and even used CiderPress to unshrink it and turn it into a .po image, but KEGS32 fails to run the game for me for some reason. <img src='http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/sapphire/images/smilies/sad.gif'> </p><p>I *think* both Shadowforge and Wraith are supposed to be Apple II GS games, but truth be told I'm not even sure about that - they're extremely obscure. The games must be abandonware at this point since Nite Owl Productions has long ceased to be, so ideally I'm looking for a disk image I could actually run with KEGS32. </p><p>Barring that, if someone has the games, would you be so kind as to take a couple of in-game screenshots? I'm preparing a retrospective article on Ultima-likes for the RPG Codex (<a href="http://rpgcodex.net/">http://rpgcodex.net/</a>), and both Shadowforge and Wraith are supposed to be just that so I'd love to have some screenshots, at least. </p><p>Thanks </p><p>- Irina<br><br>Posted to: Shadowforge (1989) and Wraith: The Devil's Demise (1990) <a href="http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/games-forum/show/452#post452">Show Thread</a> | <a href="http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/games-forum/show/452#post452">Post Reply</a> Sun, 13 May 2012 14:17:50 +0200 cbee http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/games-forum/show/452#post452
