Hi. I'm having a slight problem...

When I tried to play the game, it said the file was missing and needed to be located. I found it, but then I got an error saying it needs to be run on a certain resolution, but I told it to go on anyway. It errors out. So I turned my resolution to 800x600, the lowest, and the game starts... sort of... I get no image, but if I hit esc it asks me to save the game. I've tried running it all the compatabilities and colors, but nothing seems to work. Any idea what I can do?

I'm using windows XP, by the way.

Those nice scores in the review are a sharp contrast to the horrible reviews and terrible reception by the gaming community received when it was released. Or maybe it's just so old we can't tell whether it's good or not anymore

Kul vahad!
Dark Seed! My first adventure game (on Amiga500; those were the golden days). Just for curiosity, I have downloaded Dark Seed 2, but it does not work. Is there anyone who can help with this problem?
Alas! I am afraid this soulless PC I have won't allow me to play and explore this beauty.
Damn PC!

Try using Compatibility Modes.

[Right-click on executable]->[Properties]->[Compatibility].
Set to Windows 98, 640x480, 256 colors.

That will be the first thing I will try if I manage to install the game properly and find its exe file.
Thank you in anyway.

Try to use that with the installer executable too. I remember some games in whose installation it actually helped.

I'm assuming this version is without the cutscenes, right? Is the story understandable at all without it?
