The Ishar games aren't exactly the greatest RPGs out there, although they were decent enough, but I was amused to see that the screenshots were actually from the Amiga version of Ishar.
A lot of people are going to be disappointed to receive the more colorful yet washed out DOS version instead.
Unless I'm wrong and this is the Amiga version emulated of course.
dunno. i dont see any diference.
What?
Ishar on the Amiga had a far different look, the character and enemy graphics were practically entirely different sprites, the Amiga had a darker color palette and possessed higher resolution graphics.
There's a BIG difference, big enough for me to notice it instantly.
dunno about the Amiga version but screens on GOG look exacly like the Ishar i am playing now on my PC.
Ishar Amiga:

Ishar DOS:

Notice the color differences, notice how the sprites are slightly altered, look at the character portraits.
GOG has the Amiga screens.
Ok i see it now but the problem is with mobygames, screens from DOS are in Amiga section:
AMIGA:

DOS screen in amiga section:

As far as I see all screens on GOG are from DOS. Prove me if im wrong, i have the game instaled, i have made some comparations and no difference so far.
EDIT:
Don't know what happend but those links are down.
here is something in replacement:

More colourful, yet washed out is a bit of a contradiction.
