Quest for  Glory IV
      Shadows of Darkness
*************************
Game Check      Solutions
*************************

   The Game does not appear to have a doc check or other type of protection...
I, however, found weird combos of 5 different symbols in groups of 5, 
asociated with weird words throughout one of the manuals...  

   I therefore decided to play the game until I found use for these codes, and
I did... We are not sure if this game check is an integral part of the game
in order to reach a solution, so we are not releasing a crack just yet.  If
we see that a crack will not affect the game adversely later in the game,
we will put out the crack then.

   The check is in the form of symbols which you need to match up in order
to brew some spells in a certain location.  There are five different symbols
which need to be put in a row five symbols long.

   Given the fact that the symbols can be repeated, the total number of 
possible combinations are 5^5 = 3125...  Too many to resort to trial and error.
   
   I do not know how important those potions are to solving the game...
While a crack might take care of the check, there is no guarante that other 
such checks won't pop up at most important moments, crippling your hability to 
resume the Quest...
   
   I therefore present you with the codes to such possible doc checks:
