Hi, as per the instructions, you have to press 1 and 2 to move the cursor horizontally, then 0 to choose your option.
Please note that keeping the keys pressed does not repeat their input, you have to push them repeatedly. If you load the joystick file, you can keep the lever left or right to move the cursor instead.
in first mission when I reach the village after destroying all the artillery installations, I meet a message that I have to destroy them all before entering. Could they recover while I was walking?
No, you should be able to enter the village after you destroy all of the Flak. Remember that to destroy them you must select the Attack icon while standing in their sector, after eliminating the artillery squad of course. Which version are you playing? Can you send a snapshot at zanklesoft (at) gmail (dot) com ?
Hi! I think its a little bit strange when you meet any solders and they didn't found you then if you do something in your bag or rest you will be attacked
Hi truf and thank you for purchasing the game and for asking.
As hinted in the manual, the explosives have landed not very far from your starting point. Search for them in the areas located north and south of that point. Please remember that their location, like that of the partisans, changes every time you start a new game.
Once you find the explosives, you will automatically pick them up. To destroy a FlaK, defeat the artillery squad, then select the Attack icon.
My own game testing and players feedback suggests that the first part can be solved between 40 and 60 minutes at normal difficulty level. As for the second part, depending on your ability to solve the puzzles, you could keep going at it for days, weeks, maybe more? :-)
Wow, what an interesting and original game idea for the Speccy! I already greatly enjoyed your games, especially Apulija and the brillant Ad Lunam so I'll have to get Italia 1944. :)
edit: I love the manual, very well and professionally done and a pleasure to read! I really appreciate it when there is put so much care into creating a manual, reading it is part of the game experience and fun for me.
thank you very much for appreciating Italia 1944, and the other games as well. It is great to know that the care I put into making the game and documentation can be noticed and appreciated as you did.
There will be more reissues coming this year, so stay tuned! :-)
La presentación, el manual en pdf y la ambientación del juego son perfectas y te mete de lleno en la acción. La dificultad es ajustable lo que ayuda, a los que no somos muy buenos en este tipo de juegos, a poder avanzar en la aventura. Sin duda un juego que merece la pena probar.

Well, the enemy doesn't just stand still - if you don't attack him, he will find you and attack! ;-)
Ok I see this is logical but time is not going:) Also I found that the control would be more convenient with the buttons "Z,X,M, space" Thanks!
Great game, but I can't figure out how to blow up the anti-aircraft batteries... It says I have no explosives... Where player is supposed to get it?

BTW, I have noticed that russian tape ver is crashing if one tries to examine the chest on a 2nd floor. Video recording: https://youtu.be/_3fw5qofpO4
Hope you could fix it in feature versions.
Hi, thank you for discovering this bug. I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.
Hi, the bug should now be fixed, please download the file again and tell me if everything works now
what's the length of the game ?
