#16278: SCI: QFG2: Serious Bug: Capturing Air Elemental Can Render You Unable to
Use Magic Rope
------------------------------+-------------------------

    Type:  defect             |     Status:  new
Priority:  normal             |  Component:  Engine: SCI
 Version:                     |   Keywords:
    Game:  Quest for Glory 2  |
------------------------------+-------------------------
 I am using ScummVM version 2.9.1.

 In Quest for Glory 2 (EGA version), I captured the air elemental but
 afterward discovered that I was unable to use the magic rope. All I would
 get following that is a message saying "I'm a frayed knot" whenever I
 typed "use rope." After restoring a game, I captured the air elemental
 again and this time the rope worked so this bug doesn't occur every time.
 Being unable to use the rope is fatal for a (pure) thief as the rope is
 required to complete the game with that class. Vague memory suggests this
 bug may have originated with Sierra but I'm not sure.

 I am playing the GOG Windows version of the game.

 I am running the game on Windows 11 Home, x64.
