i have been wanting to play the devil's whiskey for some time but the site it's sold from straight up looks and feels like a scam lol. these games are rare enough to not be found elsewhere
Devil Whiskey can be bought DRM free on gamersgate.com . highly recommended, it's a very nice Bard's Tale clone with a somewhat scottish feel to it.
and Decklin's Domain is legit. the guy behind the company isn't the developer of Devil Whiskey, but he owns the rights to it.

Yep, I bought a copy of Demise through gamersgate and naturally I searched out his site on ebay to get physical copies. Dude was awesome enough to even send me a cover he had left for Devil Whiskey.

Still playing DTR. Found levels 30. 31, 32, 33. Any idea how I get to 34? Thanks!
There is drop of.
Thanks - just to check, I was asking regarding DTR rather than revenge (playing both at the same time gets confusing!) - I have 33 fully mapped out but can't see any drop off. Thanks

I used to play this quite a bit years ago. Had a blast camping out rooms for hours. Then realized I was getting practically the same experience by playing Classic EverQuest (Project1999), but with less jank and more social interaction.

Found the drop off (thanks to some advice from a kind forum member), strange, I thought I had been in that room!

Soooooo, I have been playing mordor2/demise for 30+ years. I recently learned of Demise Vol3: Revenge of the Tavern Keeper and was immediately hooked, again. Been relearning and grinding for about a week, and just read most of this thread looking for the answer to my (stupid) problem...displaced myself into a rock right at entrance to dungeon on L2.

The good news is that I always ran a dedicated server when I played because I prefer extra hard mode Demise of playing only 1 character at a time. So for now, and into the unforeseeable future, there will be a server with some casual and other not so casual players from my twitch/discord community delving around on it. It is called Grandma's House on the master list and its only a few days old at the time of writing this. Stop by, say hi and more to the point, can somebody please come summon my ninja explorer's corpse out of this damn rock!

Thanks for reading and happy delving!

Saris as a single char choice, you get no extra swings ever, how's the exploring/leveling ?

Belthazor do you know how to run Revenge fulscreen with 3D acceleration? It does not work on any modern system I have.
Also, have you tried decklin's beta reboots of Mordor 1 and Mordor 2?

Has anyone tried buying Ascension from Declandomain or e-junkie - are they legitimate or a scam?

Also as anyone tried Ascension (or the older Rise of Ku'tan) on Windows 10 and 11?

It is not cheap to get the game and I don't want to be scammed. Also the demo available is quite old so I am not sure its representitive (and it did not work for me).

These are legit sites. You should try with Revenge, it's basically ascension with extra levels and minor new features. It works under win 10 and 11 but in software mode

Is there any game similar?
You know, less clunky that doesn't take 10 minutes to load.

Yes, just like peaceful monsters will say "I wish to join", when the player enters a room. The sound effects, including monster noises, were one of the things I enjoyed about this game.
