If ANYONE knows the game title, I will be forever grateful!! I have been looking for it forever! I know how it starts and that's it. It was first scene...  ::) .... SEEN... on a friend's computer and that friend only had like an hour each day on the computer so.. yeah. Never got to play much since my time on their computer was considered part of their time limit... gah... parents.

Anyway, the game is set in a medieval setting and you start as a guy in a cell in a dungeon (or a tower maybe?). All that is in the dungeon is a door, a window, a torch and a pile of straw. Naturally you have to torch the straw and pretend that the fire was an accident while the guards inspect your cell. You then escape, lock the guards in the cell, and go on your merry way.

Vague memories of the game involve a town with a pub and a rude bartender who I think was an ogre?? Or maybe the ogre was a bouncer?? Hmm.. what else..?? I do believe the graphics were VGA (do not take my word on that), there was sound and music but no voices, and it was definitely an adventure game. I do NOT remember if it was point and click or text based but remembering the puzzle of the torch and straw makes me strongly believe that it was an adventure game.

Any ideas?? Thanks.

Lure of the Temptress? I haven't played that game in a while, but I vaguely remember starting a fire and escaping from a jail cell. There was a pub too.. But every adventure game has a pub. So I guess I'm not much help.

Feel free to delete this entire thread if needed... since it is now completely pointless.  ;D

You don't want to know what I am actually saying out loud.. it's just gibberish.. pure utter astounded gibberish.

If you think that's amazing, they also have Beneath a Steel Sky, too. That's a much, much better game than Lure of the Temptress was - http://www.revolution.co.uk/_display.php?id=16
