I had to try myself, so I went Dosbox + CWSDPMI.exe.
I got the game to run (without sound though), but it crashed a short time into the intro.

That's not DosBox... it's the game. There was a corrupt version once and that one has been archived.... The working version hasn't been located yet.. I'm still hunting. I have no workaround for that one yet. I've been able to run the others on DosBox/VirtualPC so far....

You need to distract it.

Spoiler

Make sure the demon hunter is distracting the monkey. Whisper that to him.

When I delete a game, the file is removed from the harddrive. You might want to check with an undelete app but still, the file is deleted. A load or save-game is nothing more than creating/deleting files in a folder.

One advantage.... you now know you can pass the spider web..   

Chapeau for your persistence! Enjoy the rest of the game.

Come to think of it.... do you eat the purple fruit that's on the tree north of the statue? This will increase your speed dramatically... and do you take the right path?

Spoiler

Follow the path to the north through the opening in the wall. Keep following the path and keep to the right. You’re in a maze but can’t do anything else but following the path until you’re at a sundial. Enter the north right path of the sundial. Again you can only follow the path through the maze and when you exit the maze, keep walking to the right until you see a door in the wall. Opposite of the door, a bit to the right is a statue. Look at the statue. It holds a key. Take the KEY.

North from this statue is a tree that has purple fruit in it. You can eat it and it will increase your walking speed for some time. So take the path opposite the door and eat the fruit. Then use the key on the door and go through. Go south past the gazebo and keep walking all the way to the left until you’ll see a shed. Enter the shed and look at the shelves in the back. On one of them is a handle. Take the HANDLE. Leave the shed and go back the way you came, to the right and north at the gazebo. Through the door and turn right here. Follow the path and it will turn north. Keep walking north until you’re at the spider web. When you were quick enough you can crawl under it. If not, try again.

De 4 elementen..... crashed alleen bij het inlezen van de eerste .OVL :-(

Here's your solution:

Delete the .run file. This is the one causing the trouble. Find yourself a copy of brun20.exe (the one that's used when files are compiled with QuickBasic 2.0) and put it in the same dir. Then rename that brun20.exe to PJS-PC.RUN and Bob's your teapot...

I've found a copy of brun20.exe in this archive and was able to run the game on a genuine DOS (6.22) machine. Just checked it with DosBox which also works like a charm. But also crashes...

I'll see whether this is something related to memory or a programmatical error. 

You need to be quick, take the correct path at once and not stop anywhere. Furthermore, if you you're using a saved game from after entering this level, chances are you won't make it because you lost time... save as soon as you enter this chapter or at the end of the previous one.

If you're talking about the sleeping one...

Spoiler

I was able to pass that one by walking as close to the wall as possible and then leave the room again.

I'm not sure if this was a bug or intended.

Can you tell the name of the game? The I can give it a go.

You're in the right direction with the poison. But you need to be really close and the timing needs to be right...
Once that's done, all your other questions will be answered.

You can find it in the lightning tower.

To continue:

Spoiler

Look at the cracks in the wall. You can break them but not with your hands. Use the keyring with keys on the cracks to open them up.

If it's the location I think you are:

Spoiler

Walk back to the left and use your lighter on the dark spot on the upper right to reveal a hole.

Congratulations AG and all the best with the competitions.

Enter the tent again and go into the tunnel. Walk all the way to the right and tell the DemonHunter about the monkey. Ask him for advice and then ask him to borrow his SWORD.

You need the sword first before you can get the monkey.

To take the sword:

Spoiler

Wear the pink slippers before entering the cave.

[close]

You need to prove that you've taken the sword back 'by force', so let the guy think there was a fight.

Spoiler

Go upstairs and make some noise.

[close]

Here's how:

Spoiler

Take the frying pan and the pipe and use them on each other near the opening to the tunnel.

The tooth rotter wants something sweet:

Spoiler

Use the tiny brain to get some control of the body. Pick up the marmalade from the table, followed by the bowl of sugar. That should be enough for the tooth rotter.

Amazing! Great work! Thnx Peder.
