Ok apparently I am the only person who ever had this trouble with this game. Googling turns up nothing. I can't figure out how to pass through doors. Yes that is right. I can't figure out how to walk through a freaking door in this game. I am on the very first level of the maze. Every door I come to, when I try to pass through, I get the Ouch! message as if it is a solid wall. I tried the (p)ick command but all I get is a What? message when I hit the letter P. I have tried several doors already. I tried another version of the game that I downloaded off of some abandonware site. Same thing. I went back to Wizardry 1 which I played earlier in 2015 just to make sure doors worked like I expect them too, and yes, I can pass through doors in Wizardry 1 just fine. So there you have it. I can't figure out how to walk through a door. I wish I was making this up. I am running the PC Wizardry Archives version of the game. Any help, whether it ends up being right or wrong, would be greatly appreciated. The game is unplayable as is and I'd rather not skip over it.
