Another great game. As a successor to the original, there are a lot of things that have changed. There is a very unique spell system that can change any trash you found into powerful weapon or defense mechanism. Every item has its weight that you need take into consideration when carrying it and the game itself is much, much bigger. However it became much more difficult bearing a very small amount of clues in which direction you should go or do. However the game is still great.

This is totally abandonware, Just not on their site. Keep surfing the net and you can find it free everywhere. Don't pay for roms.

This is way beyond false advertising. "Over 17,000 free games" my ass. Every game I went to check you, it asks for money. Last time I checked, that's not free. The developers of this sites are just a bunch of thieves.

Why were all versions removed? The DOS version is the only one for sale on GOG... The Amiga version should still be available

Ah yes and it seems that Elvira II will only run with Kickstart ROM v2.x
For ex: Amiga 3000 Kickstart ROM v2.04 rev 37.175.rom
from https://www.ikod.se/download/

I tested Kickstart ROM v1 and V3 with the FS-UAE Emulator and both just made it till the 'Cracktro' but the Game don't start.

Faulty Diskimage:
Elvira 2 - The Jaws of Cerberus (1992)(HorrorSoft)[cr SKR](Disk 7 of 7)[a].adf
has a disk error. Use the Elvira 2 - The Jaws of Cerberus (1992)(HorrorSoft)[cr SKR](Disk 7 of 7).adf instead.

Pass the Copyprotection:
Use
1. Elvira 2 - The Jaws of Cerberus (1992)(HorrorSoft)[cr SKR](Disk 1 of 7)[a].adf (or [a4])
2. Elvira 2 - The Jaws of Cerberus (1992)(HorrorSoft)[cr SKR](Disk 2 of 7)[a2].adf
and
3,Elvira 2 - The Jaws of Cerberus (1992)(HorrorSoft)[cr SKR](Disk 3 of 7)[a].adf
to always pass the security check.
However be aware that on Disk 3 the file 'tables01' is incorrectly patched.
I fixed that by installing the game to the hard disk (DH0:) by running the Installer on Disk1:
hdinstall DH0:

However you may also somehow copy the file 'tables01' from DISK1 to DISK3.

Details of the Patch:
.name dc.b "tables01",0
.data dc.w $4278,$c ;original = 0b
dc.w $45b4,$c ;original = 0b
