Tags: GOG; ThunderscapeToday's new release from GOG is Thunderscape, a World of Aden RPG released by SSI in 1995 and one of the first turn-based RPGs with free movement, later followed by the likes of Wizardry 8 and Wizards & Warriors. The price is $5.99, and apart from the voiced English version you also get German and French as additional languages (text-only). This being one of my first RPGs, I'm definitely buying this and trying to find some time for a replay in the near future.
"Prestigious turn-based combat", eh? I bet it was JudasIscariot who wrote that overview. ; )

What's cool about it:
All is not well in the world of Aden. The Darkfall stains the land with its hellspawn, the mindless horrors only known as nocturnals. Warriors tested by combat and steel ride across battered lands to battle these vile hordes Sneaky rogues and ruthless inquisitors seek out traitors in corrupted cities and towns. Powerful mechamages wield deadly contraptions of steam welded with magic. All of this will be for naught unless a true hero rises and leads the way out of the encroaching darkness!
Thunderscape is a first-person dungeon-crawling RPG filled to the brim with only the most prestigious turn-based combat and real-time exploration. Create and customize a party of six adventurers with 8 races and 11 character classes to choose from. Challenge your intellect and skill as you avoid deadly traps and solve mind-bending puzzles. Thunderscape is a precious jewel in the Strategic Simulations crown and it is our pleasure to bring it to you once more. Will you fight to save the magical and wondrous world of Aden from the Darkfall?
