Not a game to play at 2am, on your lonesome, when it's time for the Medusa chamber...
Oooh, big floating skull... wonder what that does...
***SHRIEK!***
Panic! Flee! Run into one of those other monsters on the level! Get "back-stabbed" by the Medusa... game over. Yes, I remember that well.

Beat: DM, CSB, EOB, EOB2, EOB3, Black Crypt, Captive, Hired Guns...

HELP!!!
I tried to emulate Black Krypt by WinUAE. Everything seems fine, BUT the game needs "gamesave" disk. I tried to create a blank Amiga disc and named it "gamesave.adf", as it is mentioned in the instruction, but nothing happened. I already tried various names and disc capabilities, but nothing works. I even formatted .adf disc in Amiga version of CSB and renamed it, but nothing works. Without gamesave disk I cannot play BC. Help!

thanx Suule!!!
This game is really good, probably the best just after DM/CSB. Hard enough and well made! Runs UNBELIEVABLY WELL on WinUAC (well, I did A1200 settings etc.)! I never finished it on Amiga, so maybe now... I`ve seen some maps - there are 28 of them and most are GIGANTIC!!
*seriously thinking about ripping the stuff...*

I think Germanja's web site has the first two levels of the BC win port, as the original site/link is broken.

BC 100% Working.

I looked at the screenshots, there are a few pearls on this site with beautiful graphics.
I didn't know of "Unreal" until now. Somehow they managed to numerize or reproduce one of Tim White's picture for their main screen. (the one with the guy in a swamp spiders web and a distant city on a mountain).

About my post?Tom Hatfield wrote:Kinda hard to read for most residents of this forum. I'd be interested if I knew what the heck it said!
Well i try to say - you can found Black Crypt on my HOBRing web site. It is WHDLoadized Amiga version, 100% working on PC.
Just look at http://hobring.esero.net/games.htm
PS: Sorry for my english...
Amiga Forever!

Thanks for the link!
If you click on link i posted, you will find a small instructions what to do. It is in english too.
If you have any idea about improvement, give me know.
Amiga Forever!
I have some unfinished business with Black Crypt and I want to play it again.
I never managed to finish it in the Amiga days as my gamesaves kept getting corrupted, I started the game again 5 times before finally giving up! The farthest I ever got to before this evil gamesave corruption was the underwater level.
So what is the best way to play it again? Through the WinUAE emulator? Or through this Amiga in a box thing?
Sorry, I don't know much about the amiga emulation, just want to play on something that won't corrupt my saves...
Yes I'm paranoid when it comes to this game

Re: Black Krypt
The best thing is always to play it with a real Amiga... the feeling is unemulable.
But if you do not have your Amiga anymore, then just download the WHDLoadized Black Crypt installation whose link you can find some posts above... then install WinUae and give it a run. Nowdays WinUAE is the best thing to use in order to play an Amiga game on non Amiga hardware.

Re: Black Krypt
Hmm I think I threw almost as many hours into this game as I did into Dungeon Master in my early teens. But while I was able to finish DM multiple times, only ever beat the Crypt once and that's with the maps in the manual. I've still got that book in my garage actually.
I remember on level...3? with the invisible scorpion like creatures. First time I went barrelling into there without the mask of true sight. Then wondering what the hell was hitting me. I used to hate the underwater levels because of the whole needing to breath thing, and I also disliked the "fire" levels because everything was red lol.
I did think it was really cool the concept of the story and how you had to find the 4 artifacts to beat the boss, and how they all worked in conjunction. Was really cool. At the same time though, having been a DM nutter before I played Crypt, I hated how you were tied to 4 classes and they couldn't really do anything outside their class. It was fine for the Cleric and Fighter, but once your spells dried up, the MU and Druid were pretty useless as their knives and bows didn't do a hell of a lot.
I've still got it on my WinUAE and have been meaning to take a run through it for a while now. Could be a job for when I'm in my new house I think
