A demo CD is just that, a taste of the full game.
You don't get the full manual with other games so why should you get it with this demo???
It is a bit annoying not know what things are but when you buy the full Version it is a lot easier to play.
My advice buy the game and enjoy.....

FYI: I think Erhardt wasn't refering a *a* demo CD, he was refering to *the* demos on the *SE4* CD, hence the manual question

AFAIK, there isn't any "demo CD" for SE4; you just download the demo file from the website. At least that's what I did. I also found the tutorial, which is exactly the same in both the demo and full Version, sufficient to learn the basics of play. Reading the print and CD manuals added some details, and anything else I've been confused on has been answered on this board. I honestly don't understand what problems Darkstar is having.

The HTML help that comes with the full Version isn’t all that great. A good old fashion windows help file would have been much better. This would have allowed actual searching of the manual.

The paper manual is a joke. It functions as a sort of introduction and quasi index for the CD manual. I really expected more for my money.

The game is great, the documentation is not.
