In the Agd version of kings quest 1 grabing the condor is impossible. I watched a youtube video 48 times of someone doing it do the exact same thing and miss everytime, his feet are clerly behinfd the small rock and hes clicking bird but when I do it nothing happens except he jumps and misses. I see no x on ground at all. Guy on youtube vid could not have been on a x because his feet was behind rock. Been reseting that condor for 3 hours and cant do it. I'm pulling my hair out. The entire kings quest parels of rosella was nothing compared to this one thing.

You don't want it bad enough.

hahahaha

It's quite a while since I played this but I remember struggling with this myself. See if this helps:

There's nothing more frustrating than getting stuck on a problem like this, and normally I end up just hurling abuse at the screen like an idiot. So best of luck with getting past this!
