Dark Designs Series by John Carmack.
OK I wanted to make a post about the Dark Design Series. The most familiar and accessible of the series are I and II as they were both released for DOS in addition to the Apple ][.
Somewhere on these forums, I discovered that the Dark Designs series had an Apple IIGS release of Dark Designs III Retribution, which I had though was the last of the series as some folks here also seem to have thought, but apparently not.
According to Mobygames, Dark Designs has a total of 6 games in this series. I and II being released for both the Apple II and DOS, while III Retribution was released only for Apple (apparently ][ and IIGS), and (IV Passage to Oblivion) and (V Search For Salvation) and (VI Restoration) were released for the Apple computer(at least the ][. Not sure about IIGS).
The entire series I-VI seems to have been released on Apple ][.
My question being, were IV and V, and VI only released on Apple ][ or did they each also have an Apple IIGS release? and did anyone here at the codex play IV and/or V and/or VI? and if so ][? or IIGS? and what was their experience in playing them? The Dark Designs series seems like a fun game series to play through. Did anyone play though all of them with an Apple ][? The DOS games of I and II seem to be available, but I'm more interested in playing the Apple ][ or IIGS versions.
Was III through VI released for both ][ and IIGS? I know III had a IIGS release. Interested in what releases IV and V and VI had.
