So I finally got my Scrapland copy and installed it on my Win7 computer.

But it turns out that this game is having starforce (which wasn't mentioned on the cover and the description at all!) and my computer blocks all attemps to let star force to become installed out of not being compatible(which is true).

There are no fix files for the German copy and I won't get any refund of this game because this was a private auction. The starforce removal tool works only on the installed starforce protection and not on the file which triggers the requirement.

Now I have just wasted money for this unplayable trash!

I am really pissed right now, and sure as hell won't buy Alice MR on ANY plattform if it has any sort of DRM >_<

Hey, careful with your words! If you can't make it work doesn't mean the game is trash.

It is trash if it is unplayable and if you have no support or fix or whatsoever to play it. It's like a broken gun. You can't shoot someone if this thing doesn't work, thus it's uselsess.

Well, technically, it's more like a gun that can't be fired underwater, as it's being attempted to run on something that it wasn't originally intended for, I assume.

Why sit in your dark and lonely room?
Must your every word be sincere?
Here's a vial of laughing gas perfume;
See that people smile when you're near.

Thanks for putting it better.
