Yesterday my brother visited me, and when I showed him my games collection, he told me he too has Simon the sorceror 2, but it won't work properly.
Apparently it's all glitched - messed up colours, big pixels, just all round bodged up. He'd tried emulators, changing the resolution, all sorts. (The game cost him 99p)
So I loaded my copy up on my PC and he said "It doesn't work for you either?"
I informed him that this IS what the game is supposed to look like.
I guess he's never experienced the whole aging graphics issue before!

Seriusly your brother and the rest of civilization who depend on graphic are on the loose .Cause there is nothing like good old adventure game.They don't make that nowdays ( except in here ).
it's also sad because Simon has amazing pixel art graphics.
I'm guessing the last time he saw a pixel art game was when he played monkey island 2 when it first came out!
That was the only portion that confused me. The game has excellent pixelling, enough to make to drool a bit while looking at "Coming Soon!" screenshots. Now, if it were an old SCI game, I could understand some bewilderment.
