I used to love playing a game once where you started out choosing between a female or a male elf. Then you went on a journey towards a castle, collecting berries as weapons. In the castle was a wizard or something that put you in his dungeon and you had to find a suit of armor and fight a monster to get out. This game was very colorful and a bit cartoony. Anyways, I think that at the end a message popped up talking about volume 2 of it. Does anyone know what game I'm talking about, and where to get it, or perhaps more importantly, where to get part 2?

Thanks Happy

Oh djees, tried that game out some month or two ago for Wardrich, is on the shareware CDs he posted about ....LOLZ
I think you're talking about this:

That's Elf11, or Elfland, first episode, shareware, you had to order the next ones.
You can find that here:

(scroll down a bit).

There is also an 'Elf' on Hotu, it's not the same.

[Update]
Carl Erikson was so friendly to answer my mail about Elfland, and he has send me the link to the new site he and his bro are setting up, also you can download a version working directly on XP there.

The first volume is still free.
5$ for the full game is a reasonable price, certainly for such funny and pretty good game.

Enjoy it.
