Have you tried moving diagonally? Press '?' to reread the first whisper. The numeric keypad or the yubnhjkl keys should help.

Maybe I can help, do you have Java installed on your system?

I'm disappointed you gave the game a 1 already, did you even get a chance to play it?

Is there a possibility for this game to be played on android phone (on dos box or something)? I would really love to have something nice to play on the phone.

No plans for phone development at the moment, though if I did it would probably be Android.

Hey. This took a bit of fiddling to get working on Mac. If you can upload a square game icon somewhere, I can upload a packaged Mac .app file for you. :)

Whoops, totally forgot there was a game icon here already. :) If you upload this as an additional file and label it as OS X that would be great. http://ashleygwinnell.co.uk/_misc/Legerdemain.app.zip Let me know when you have so I can take it off my domain. Cheers!

Thanks for the heads up, actually I have a tar.gz bundle on my website that might do the trick, but I hadn't seen where to add additional files until just now. I can upload that one? It would be helpful for me support-wise if I was consistent across websites.

I thought of just putting up the .jnlp file for Java Web Start, but I wasn't sure if you guys supported that.

We don't support jnlp at the moment; if i remember something to do with the way the files have to be organised on a server.

You're welcome to upload the tar.gz file, though typically OS X users aren't familiar with the unix trickery I've needed to do to get it to work; for this reason I recommend the .app zip I've uploaded. It's just a folder with some files in on other systems, which you should be able to edit easily for updates.

I'd go with uploading all three variants. :)

If you enjoy this game and would like to support it, check out the cluebook package available at http://roguelikefiction.com. It comes with Legerdemain on a limited edition CD, a hand drawn map, and a three hundred page magician's journal full of clues, subplots, and background material.
