On one       >of the local BBS's I found version 1.5, the registration information was for a       >guy in New Zealand, Glenn Sutton from BCSoftware. Finally, to add spice to       he       >search, Sunrise Door Software has it as a WINServer game.              I had a couple of users who used to play Meldon and I wanted to register it.       When Al from Sunrise had one of his registration specials, I registered all of       the DOS games he had. Al took over the Lounge doors when Jim stopped       developing them, but apparently Al retired the DOS version of Meldon so I       didn't get a key for that one.              >The game does have       >nice graphics, but it seems to be a LORD clone so far.              The game is similar to LORD in that it is an RPG that seems to mimic a       similar point in time (when warriors had swords but not guns), but the       gameplay is different. The gameplay is more like Quest for Nora or Legends of       Ole.              > Anyone know where a       > complete release of Lounge Softare keys can be found?              I am also curious.              Mike                      * SLMR 2.1a * A lawyer is the larval form of a politician       --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 90/1 105/81 106/201 114/705 116/17 18 120/302       SEEN-BY: 120/616 123/10 120 131 129/215 305 153/757 7715 154/10 30       SEEN-BY: 154/40 50 700 218/700 840 220/70 90 221/6 226/17 18 30 70       SEEN-BY: 226/100 227/114 229/110 112 113 200 206 307 310 317 400 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 452 470 550 664 700 250/5 8 266/512 267/800 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 291/111 298/25 301/1 305/3 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 633/280 712/848 770/1 2320/0 33 105 195 304 401 3634/12       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 154/10 221/6 218/840 770/1 317/3 229/426           |
