saving games

Post by voyager55q »

How does quick save work? Do you just keep saving the current game or can you have multiple saves? What are the empty spots in the save menue for and how do you use them? This is an awesome game--THANKS! I get tired of watching all the grandkids slash & burn. Nice to have a thinking game again and for the Mac makes it the best.

Quicksave is just the last save of whatever you're currently doing. When you quicksave you overwrite the previous quicksave. For multiple saves, you have to use the standard save dialogue box.
You fill the slots by clicking on the slot and entering a saved game name.

I understand quicksave but cannot find any other save options either in the game or manual. Where are they? I have the Mac edition. Thanks.

Click the diskette icon to open the Options Menu, then select "Save Game".

Select an "empty" slot and type the name of your saved game.
