Additional Comments

Game's copy protection is not compatible with wine. You have to use patched nocd-exe to run it. I found game on my system a bit choppy, especially during some more intensive magic animations. After setting graphics options to medium it was all good. After launch game mutes the sound. It actually does it twice, once during initial credits and once just before main "Load/Start game" screen appears. Minimizing the game at this point and unmuting the sound works fine and you can continue through the game with the sound on. Admin note: rating changed to conform to the rating definitions.
