Dutch add

Hello,

I must say I really enjoy your game! Magnificent!

There was one thing I stumbled upon which caused my left eyebrow to raise just a bit (see attachment).

While 'storage' is English and the signs are probably universal, the text is in Dutch. I admit I haven't finished the game yet so there might be a chance that there is an explanation for this, or it's just an in-game joke Smile

Well the English translation is more or less obvious "In case of fire or emergency, call xxx"
In case somebody would be interested, 010 is the netnumber for the Rotterdam region, and that particular numbering system has been in use since around 1950 Smile

Heh. Interesting detail. Smile Maybe they localize the texture but they only change the title. Which language is your version?

I'm using the standard(?) multilingual version, set to English. But I don't know if there is a Dutch localisation of it, since we're used to getting UK-versions (unlike some other European countries, like Germany, France, Spain, etc.). Sometimes if we're very lucky a game contains manual in Dutch.

I got it from bol.com, but I recently saw that they (should) have it at dynabyte's and you can even order it at the free record shop. Smile

Could have been much worse, which isn't uncommon here with "less-than-popular" kind of games. :/

RE: Dutch add

Alternatively, you could ask a beyond-the-border friend to order it via German Amazon Wink
If you live close to Belgium, you are most likely quite close to Aken too ^^

The sign might be written in Dutch because there was a Dutch security person in the mine ^^
