Welcome to 1995. To enjoy this game please make sure your computer has at least these settings:
Windows 95 or Windows 3.1x
8 MB of RAM; Hard drive required;
SVGA display capable of at least 640x480 resolution with 256 colors;
CD-ROM; Major sound card via Windows.

Actually, computers today (speically mine) can't manage these low settings and therefore can't run this game. Luckly there's such thing as DOSbox. It's basically a dos prompt that can emulate the requried setting and run game such as this. In fact, thanks to a guy by the alias of Collector, I can now play Torin's Passage without the CD in the CD-ROM. An .exe installed the DOSbox along with the system files to run directly off my computer.

So join me in my little trip down memory lane as I play through one of the oldest games I've ever had. Torin's Passage is a point and click adventure. I am aiming for no accedental deaths and a perfect score of 999. I've checked online, and there are no LPs for this game that I could find, to my delight. So let's jump in. (Just a quick edit. Since I used the chapter select option, it reset my score every world. I still managed to beat the game without using any hints, so I achieved my goal. It just didn't say 999 at the end. If you count up all the points at the end of each world, it'll be exactly 999)

    It only gets more interesting from here. Updated second video.

    ::edit::

    Part 3 updated. Also, I just noticed in this video that I freaking forgot that chapter selecting resets your score back to 000. So while I still won't get 999 by the end of the game, I will still play through without using hits, and therefor would will still get a perfect score.

    ::edit::

    Part 4 updated.

    ::edit::

    Final episide, part 5 is up.
