Grimrock

1st try 5 levels through the Forest (aka the Sarah Desert of fresh water) (N, S,W). Party died from thirst.

2nd exploration searching forest for (Zarchton Harpoon, water flasks). Discouraged detoured into the tomb theme underground, saved the game. Half of party dead from thirst. lst level to the SW underground opened a gate and ran into a rattling with the gun there was a knight behind him long straight corridor. The game finished, I tried to go back, GPF error when Grimrock launchs.

3rd try, different path 6 levels straight down castle, lots of stone then to rock walls, plenty of water, saved each level very smooth. But still using torches. Spirt Staff shows up on two consecutive levels.

Next day performed regression test. When I saved the game the characters had reached Level 6 going down through the castle, stone, and rock levels, straight down never had any problems saving. However, when tested each restore was corrupted the entire time underground. The only restore left that restores properly are when the characters were level 2 above ground.

Here is the message that occurs



The Grimrock fountain for water would be something that should be considered. Would it be possible to attach a different number or letter for each area for descriptive purposes?

This time started in redwood forest. then went down a level to to Green Moss level (could not find any fresh water to drink though).
By the time I reached the next level down basic Grimrock stone walls two of my party where dead with thirst. I saved at the cube.
Then continued to search for fresh water, found some torches and my wizard was starting to die of thirst. Ended up in the boss fight and lost.

Once again when I I try to restore it crashes but the error is different



Did another test started out in Savanna (no fresh water there so far)
Then moved Down a level to Green Moss level again. Took care of a few then saved at the cube. Exited to see what would happen.
Sure enough the restore is corrupted with the same error.



Also the only fresh water I have found so far are the troughs (that look like for horses) in the underground stone wall levels and the tomb level, and the flasks that exist in the forest....
