Ravenloft

Just when you thought GOG.com had plundered every last attic and charity shop in its search for (sometimes) good old games, it discover yet more obscure RPGs with lovely pixel art, overwhelming interfaces, and great character portraits (I mean, just look at that moustache dude up there). GOG's latest acquisitions (opens in new tab) are three Dungeons & Dragons series: Ravenloft, Krynn, and Dark Sun. Have you heard of any of those?

They all sound pretty interesting to me. The Ravenloft (opens in new tab) pack comprises Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession and its follow-up, Stone Prophet, two dungeon crawlers set in a dark, gothic, Egypt-esque landscape. The Krynn (opens in new tab) trilogy is set in the Dragonlance world, while the two-game Dark Sun (opens in new tab) set takes place in a "vast, savage world, sun-scorched and wind-scraped", so remember to bring some suntan lotion.

Dark Sun

Each pack will set you back £6.59, or whatever that is in your local currency.

Tom loves exploring in games, whether it’s going the wrong way in a platformer or burgling an apartment in Deus Ex. His favourite game worlds—Stalker, Dark Souls, Thief—have an atmosphere you could wallop with a blackjack. He enjoys horror, adventure, puzzle games and RPGs, and played the Japanese version of Final Fantasy VIII with a translated script he printed off from the internet. Tom has been writing about free games for PC Gamer since 2012. If he were packing for a desert island, he’d take his giant Columbo boxset and a laptop stuffed with PuzzleScript games.
