Comment (by Commander-Zal):
That is an original bug that existed when even when played on real 486
hardware upon release, so I suppose ScummVM is just accurately replicating
it. The way I got around it back in the 90's was to crank the game speed
(with the slider in the in-game menu) all the way to maximum, which
usually allowed you to slide down the rock without the game crashing, then
you could dial it back to a normal speed to continue the game as usual.
It was always a rather intermittent bug. On rare occasions it would just
work even at a normal speed, but I'd say it has a 75% chance to trigger at
normal game speed, and maxing the game speed would reduce it to around a
10 or 20% chance to trigger.
I encountered that bug with the 90's Quest for Glory Collection English
release version (before they were ever available digitally). I've had the
bug trigger in DOSBox as well.
