Save my Saved Game

Tech stuff first. I'm running an 800 MHz iBook with OS 10.2.6. Don't be afraid of it, by the way - it's not 10.2.5. And I've got the latest PoG.

I've had a pretty successful career in the game, although I've only had it a week. I killed the Cyclopses, got the eye, had visited just about every corner of the map, and the only guys that gave me trouble were anything tough as the Rock Monsters and the Super Zombies hanging out in that cave northwest of the Black Fairy Ruins. Oh, and the Stone Giants, but that goes without saying.

Anyway, I'm having a good time, acquired an Ogre's War Axe along the way, I'm sitting pretty, everyone's afraid of me. Until this morning, anyway. (Nice buildup monologue, huh?)

This morning, I went to play the game, and as my saved game is loading in, it freezes before it gets loaded and beeps. This now happens every time I try it.

I was annoyed, but not pissed - fortunately I do a periodic 2nd save. So I open that. Unfortunately, I saved the backup just after defeating the Cyclopses, and guess what! No-one even knows I beat them! I've got the Eye, but I don't have the Key, and when I go back, those schmucks in town act like nothing happened. And I know I need the key and the Mayor to send his boys out to join the others, so basically I'm screwed, gotta start again. Yesterday they cowered before me - now even those little geeks in the metal helmets can stomp me. I feel like such a wuss.

Anyway, anyone got any thoughts? Ideas on what's going on? Ideas on how to get that saved game to run right again?

Thanks

If it ain't broke, let me
have a try at it!

I posted in your other thread where you mentioned this, but a thought just occurred to me: Did you save the game again when you opened and it was messed up (i.e. you had the eye, but the cyclops weren't considered dead, etc.)? If you resaved that game, then yes, you are in trouble. If you didn't quit and reopen PoG and give it a go.
