 There is one fangame in russian which seems to feature kyrillic text
 display/font usage in-game.
 This doesn't work with the Hercules Hires font. No kyrillic characters are
 found and displayed.

 I don't know how much of foreign character support is there *within* the
 AGI engine and i also don't know if anyone would want to invest time in
 supporting one single AGI fangame.
 But still nice to have it...not that i'd be able to read kyrillic anyway
 :-)

 I attach the fangame for conveniance.

Comment:

 This is a sole problem of the Hercules Hires font lacking kyrillic
 characters (which PC-BIOS does, as it seems)
