Free Episode 1 question.

The MorfiendThe Morfiend
edited July 2011 in Back to the Future
Hi all,

I was wondering how you use the code that allows you to download the first episode for free. I have tried entering the code into the 'coupon' section in the checkout but it wants me to buy the entire game and I would much rather try the free ep before I decide whether to purchase the whole thing.

Any help is appreciated, cheers.

    Thanks for the link. I have downloaded it and after a few problems with divx it installed. Problem now is that when I press play it does nothing...

    again, like in other posts I and others said:

    if your running it on windows 7, right click and run as administer, you can go to properties and change the security settings settings

    windows 7 is more secure then the other versions, and it gets anyoying cause you have to do this with many Apps and when you want to extract stuff to files too!!

    I think someone should do a sticky about this, or at least update in problems topic

    If you register for the game on this page, you will be able to download and play it (if you already registered, you should have a download link on your My Telltale page).

    What about users running OS X?

    There are several solutions to OS X related problems in various threads in the game support forum.

    For the record, running as administrator changes nothing for me. As before, nothing happens when i click on "play." Has anyone else found a workaround for this? I was quite interested in purchasing this game, but if I can't get the demo to work, I'm skeptical about having better luck with the full version.

    What about those of us who have the installer but no activation code or coupon? I can't figure out how to get E1 activated on my account.
