    Bylina - Lure of the Sorceress

    Greetings! I am thrilled to introduce You to Bylina - Lure of the Sorceress, an adventure set in Slavic mythology influenced region of a medieval fantasy world. It features the simple turn-based exploration and tactical combat system of Gurk, a map rich with quests, encounters, monsters...

  3. Diluvian Ultra - Weird SF Boomer Shooter

    So this is coming out today, after being in development for quite a while. Like Fortune's Run, it's another FPS with Metal hurlant-esque vibe to the world and character designs, altho this is a very different beast both visually and gameplay-wise. Seems like it turned out pretty well.

    What's the oldest games you played for the first time this year?

    With the year nearing its end, time for the "...of the year" threads spam to start. I'll begin with a less usual one. Note that this is asking for the oldest game you FIRST played this year. As in, hadn't played before. So no Civilization IV, Age of Empires II, HoMM3 and so on. Only debutantes...

    (Help Wanted) Darkstone: Evil Reigns Master Thread (Help, Patching and Modding)

    Greetings all, I've recently started playing Darkstone (technically for the second time, but only now "properly") and I'm quite enjoying it. I've seen it mentioned in passing on here several times as an obscure game and I figured I try and promote some interest in it. Why the Workshop? Well...

    Memory Lane - Which were your first games on the PC?

    Stunts Racing / 1990 DOS Played this on my 386 Pentium boasting 32 megabytes of RAM. Car models actually looked pretty decent. Amazingly, you could design your own custom tracks with various obstacles and ramps via track editor, which is what made this game really stand out. Wolf 3D FPS /...

    MediEvil PS4

    The last day I share Spyro and today MediEvil. I really love that game!! Hope that many people here will play this game. Is awesome that PS4 will release a lot of videogames from PS1.

  16. Shadowrun which I want to see

    That's interesting. Commercial looks like '80 italian exploitation movies (Joe D'Amato and Umberto Lenzi vibes). Really, i like it. Now we have only "Rag'n'Bone Man" in generic EA commercials and this kind boring shit. "These day kids..." Description: "FASA's 1990 promo video for their...

  18. KickStarter Tales from the Loop, PnP RPG based on Simon Stålenhag's stuff

    I'm a huge fan of Simon Stålenhag's. He makes this eerily photorealistic art set in an alternate 1980's-1990's Sweden (and lately, US) with giant robots, flying cargo ships, dinosaurs, and all manner of strangeness. Now there's a PnP RPG Kickstarter based on his stuff so I figured it rates a...
