   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 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.

   I am also curious.
