Even the answers I found on the Internet did not work
I remember I've tried it even with killaga/kickstart 1.3 tools ...
I have to try it with UAE, emulating a simple A500 without any expansion

Maybe I'll open a tread in the right section of the forum.

... just tried... The bug is present too, and the pics of the monster you meet during the game are also messed up: if you meet Ghouls you see the pic of a Deer, if you meet an Ogre you see a Dwarf and so on... I think this game had something wrong. I have to try the PC or Atari ST Version!!!!

Real machine or WinUAE? I assume you mean the English version, right?

WinUAE, correcty configured. I'm trying another version just now.

EDIT: ok, I found a working version on planetemu.net! It's the 2.0e, English version. I don't remeber what is mine version on floppy, and just now I've not a real amiga at hand. I will try to install this version on HD using WHDLoad. SO, I will contact the maintainer of the website (WHDownload) where I found the messed up version of the game and I'll advice him.

It might also be an idea to let killergorilla know too, as the games on WHDownload are taken from his packs.

We found the solve to this problem: there are some bugged English version of the game around, even original ones like mine (). The working English version, 100% bug free is the 2.0e English Version with the main executable (LOF file) dated 17-oct-1990. This is available only on TOSEC for now, but it will be released by SPS soon. These are the working TOSEC images:

Legend of Faerghail v2.0e (1990)(Rainbow Arts)[a](Disk 1 of 3)
Legend of Faerghail v2.0e (1990)(Rainbow Arts)[a](Disk 2 of 3)
Legend of Faerghail v2.0e (1990)(Rainbow Arts)[a](Disk 3 of 3)(Boot)

The SPS german version, Legend of Faerghail v1.8 (1990)(reLINE)(De)[0524] works fine without the riddle bug.

Well, it's not corrupt simply a bug in the game... there is a good reason why you need a new executable
