I'm playing ShadowGate on my Apple IIgs with a Transwarp card
installed. I've played and beaten ShadowGate before on the NES, but
the IIgs interface is extremely confusing. I don't see the equivalent
of the USE button, so I'm unsure how to do simple things like light
torches and the like. Can someone enlighten me on how this is done?
Also, I'm starting to wonder if my Transwarp card isn't messing with
the game speed. Normally the load times for ShadowGate were pretty bad
so I'm glad the Transwarp speeds them up significantly. However I
think it is throwing off the internal game clock. For example my first
torch goes out within about 5 moves (right after I enter the castle)
which I know can't be right. Also, I don't get the message about it
flickering first, it just goes out. Does the IIgs version not work the
same way as the NES version in this regard?
