Hi folks!

I recently finished Legend of Kyrandia 1 on my Macbook and decided to buy the second one, since I never got around playing it all those years ago! The problem is that the game always crashes when I try to use a swampsnake potion to chase away the ratman(?) hanging around in the cave in the (relative) beginning of the game.

Is there a workaround for that? I finished the first part of the series without a single crash, so I don't think that the problem has something to do with my system specs.

You will have to use an updated version of ScummVM. It has been fixed a while ago but appareantly GoG still bundles an older ScummVM version. Please try the latest ScummVM release from over here: http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/

EDIT: I think there are multiple ways to scare the rat away. Try using the potion on Zanthia or on the rat man directly. If I remember correctly, one of those should always work. That should work for now.
