I can't reproduce this. I'm using the ScummVM save/load dialogs. I've just beaten the rock-paper-shotgun game, exited the castle, entered the cell and saved. The game is saved, and I can load it just fine...

I'm also using the 2CD release

Perhaps it's something else? Have you installed the game patch?

Interesting - I've just checked, and the bug only happens when using the original save/load dialogues. It's fine when using the scummvm one. I am using the patched game.

Ah, now I managed to reproduce this. The bug only manifested when using the original save/load screens.

Fixed in commit 68b7839d99.

The fix will be available in the next daily version of ScummVM
