Description (last modified by )
Error message looks exactly like the one described on the save/load issue #16432, otherwise issue looks unrelated.
Attaching respective (ScummVM not native game) save file - it is also confirmed working in the EN version and there, the described gameplay issue does not happen so we can overcome the bug and continue play. From saved state, simply enter the house and talk to the wizard. While he talks, the debugger will show - again, only happens in German version.

Ah, can't replicate in English version. Will need to locate German to replicate and debug.
To make the attached (ScummVM) save work in EN version, rename to darby-win.08
Validated working with v2.7.1
