King of Dragon Pass

What works

Can create new games and restore games from main menu. Audio plays great.

Game is fully functional. (Note I am using [Wine] 1.3.24, but 1.2.3 tests fine as well.)

What does not

Restoring a game from the settings while in the game (icon on right side, showing a mouse with cord wrapped around) results in a wine crash. The only workaround appears to restore from the main menu (which will require you to quit the game anyway).

Scrollbars are always present unless in full screen mode. Setting the window to a slightly larger size is a good workaround.

Downloaded from GoG.com. Tested on OS X 10.8.2 using Wineskin 2.5.8 and 2.5.9. Works with wine engines up to 1.3.24 (before audio rewrite in wine).
