This question got passed my way, and I have no clue.
If you have any answers, or possibilities please post them here.

Thanks,


Alan "Pitfall Harry" Hewston

===========

I'm not sure if you can help me with this or not but I'm looking for the
title of a really old game. It was made for Win 3.1 and I can tell you
the plot line. It involved a princess and it had her going through a
forest. At one point you go into a giants house. Every now and then you
see a unicorn run past in the background. I was only a child when I
played it.. around 8 or 9.. so that was about 16 years ago. Any help you
could give me would be most appreciated. Perhaps you could point me in
the direction of someone who can help if anything else.

The only game I can think of that fits that description gameplaywise is
King's Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella. It was made for DOS, but you
could probably have played it in Windows 3.1 as well.
