Dungeon Master II: Skullkeep (1994)

Story:Chaos Strikes Back was a semi-sequel to seminal RPG Dungeon Master, but a true sequel came several years later.

1996... Those were the good old days. Back the I dreamt of having my first low-end PC. To achieve that i went to work in a hospital with a friend during summer break. I was still a minor back then, so my options were limited. The reason for going through the whole thing? Yep, you guessed it - Dungeon Master 2.
Morning till afternoon at work and evening spent on playing this game on my friend's coomputer. That was the highlight after a day's job. Hunting giant lizards and bats, fighting spectres, thieving Vikings, whirlwinds, worms, wolves and flying magic minions. Then opening the Skullkeep tower, going up the tower, solving riddles, leveling up, until the final battle with Dragoth. Climatic music, unique rune spellcasting system. We leveled up pretty high, getting ours fighter, wizard and priest skills to MON Master. Only the grandmaster rank is higher.
I still have my originnal CD published by CD Proojekt, when the were sttarting with localizing games. I still have my saves and I still have that need to go back and level up to grand master.
Ah... the good old days.
Not sure why there are two versions of this on here.
Man, I loved this game. The friend I played it alongside and I nicknamed all the monsters since we didn't know what they were called, "mud puppies", "MINE!s", and of course Sandaldude the merchant. He was the coolest thing ever, being able to haggle with him, watching the character think about the offer, the fact that he'd give you the small change possible if you traded your money box. We loved the Sandaldude Stomp, the "dance" he did when you tricked him into buying tons of items, and he's animated to take stuff off the table and stash it in his inventory. THUMP THUMP thump THUMP thump thump THUMP. Finally an organized money box spun over to us.
The strategy guide was great too; a narrative about the last party that almost won. With the beautiful joke that they made it to the end boss, suffered a near-total party wipe, and the cowardly wizard grabbed the bodies and fled. He was absolutely going to resurrect them but he deserved a night at the tavern before they stormed off to get revenge and save the world. And he got so drunk he forgot where he buried his teammates.
Just a fantastic game.
We used to have so much fun playing this game. I remember the voice when character ate or drank something and I used to mimic that noise when I was eating. I remember there was a huge thunderstorm outside when we played this, and it really added to the mood. Great game. I hope to play this again someday.

FableThe adventure in which you are about to embark tells the story of how once upon a time a young boy named Quickthorpe set out a journey through the lost world of Balkhane. It is a Fable in one way, but in the 'trick of the tale', it's a strange adventure through a shattered world and a saga born out of the very sick mind of a man called Ismael.
Long ago in the mists of time lived the Mecubarz. Ancient and beautiful, powerful and wise they ruled absolute. Strange beings, magical creatures and humans lived together in peace and harmony, until greed destroyed it all. Ismael, a respected man, and revered by all, sadly had a heart that was hollow and bitter. He and four others plotted to overthrow the Mecubarz.
The Mecubarz' fury at the treason of Ismael and his men was cataclysmic. They trapped the four seasons and put them into impenetrable crystals, casting them to the four corners of the shattered world where they stood still and were held in an eternal dominion of ice, mist, water, and fire. The four traitors were exiled, but Ismael disappeared.
As Quickthorpe, an inexperienced adventurer, your quest is to explore the Four Lands of the Mecubarz in search of the mystical gems that will liberate your people. Keen observation, puzzle-solving skill and quick thinking are the abilities required to undertake this exciting but unpredictable task. Interact with a universe of characters which come to life with true speech creating a world with an atmosphere so thick you can feel it. Combined stunning animations and atmospheric sound effects will ensure that Fable will take you on the journey of a lifetime!
But beware... in the world of Fable not everything is as it seems.Action Fantasy Comedy

DarksporeDarkspore was a video game that borrowed creature editing technology from Spore. It was described as "a fast-paced, science fiction action-role-playing game in which the player battled across alien worlds to save the galaxy from the mutated forces of Darkspore". In addition to the creature editor, the game featured a unique squad-based mechanic, various multiplayer options, and a player versus player arena. The game was released in North America on April 26, 2011 for Microsoft Windows, and in Europe on April 28, 2011.
EA seemingly has removed the store page of Darkspore from Steam, meaning any attempt to purchase it through Steam cannot be made. The game was later relisted with EA saying that they would continue to support for the game. Those who have purchased it prior to the page's removal still have the game and could play it until the servers were shut down permanently on March 1, 2016. The game is currently unplayable due to its DRM scheme requiring a connection.Action Science fiction

Disgaea PCA version of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, including the added content in Afternoon of Darkness, was released for Microsoft Windows via Steam on February 24, 2016, retitled as Disgaea PC. The initial release was panned by critics on launch due to its many bugs, which included persistent crashes, save file loss, and poor performance, even on high-end PCs. A patch was released soon afterwards that fixed many of the bugs. Another patch was released for the game later that added the four characters previously exclusive to Disgaea DS. Players who bought the game during the 2016 Steam Summer Sale would also earn free in-game cosmetic items for Valve’s first person shooter game Team Fortress 2.Action Fantasy Comedy
