Yup, DOSBox title (you can get it on GOG too). I love the sequel from 1999, to me it is one of best games ever created. It even was (is?) available on desktop Linux (and Android) thanks to fan-made project Stracciatella. Playing it with Wine was much easier though :)

Quoting: XodetaetlEr... there's a truckload of bugs fixed for Team Fortress 2 and other Valve games... ??? Those games have been ported to Linux, why did someone loose so much time making them work through Wine ?

We can only guess the reasoning behind that...

Often fixing a Wine bug for one game fixes same or similar one for another one. Also, Wine works for some platforms Steam isn't available for (unpopular Linux distribution families, FreeBSD and such).

Wish they would work more on games that are not available for Linux, though.

This is not only about graphics, but also the amount of content, polish, playability… It’s the difference between Ravensword and Gothic, for example.

Exactly! But to me it often works in the other directon. There are plenty of high-budget games which are easy to finish in like 4 hours. And so many low-budget (indie?) games with tons of content and/or good replayablity (like Dungeons of Dredmor, FTL)

I really dislike this border being set between AAA and indie. It is constantly changing to the favor of indie games, however how can one be this limited to play only AAA games? Because superior graphics? Even if patterns of those games are all repetitive? You can grab nice 2D title instead and have really looong hours of fun.

Games are games. People should choose fun ones instead of those that are most visually appealing.

But I guess GOL readers already know it :)

This game is just lovely, I love supporting early alphas when they look as promising as this one!

I am actually looking forward to other classics ported with Wine, wasn't TopWare saying something about that? There will be GOG.com in few months so I guess I'll be happy if I'll just wait a little bit more :)

That's annoying how Broken Sword series isn't available on Steam. Apart from this, a brilliant bundle (I also love the current weekly, you have to get NEO Scavenger!).

I am really glad it is still developed, I wouldn't like to see my 1 euro I gave for this game going to waste :D

They are inspired by Organ Trail which is inspired by Oregon Trail... Hello to the creativity!

Actually I am a big fan of Organ Trail and I think that classy, simplistic pixel look is better than poor 3D look like in this game. Also, what kind of recreation is that? Is 'oregon-trail' a new genre of game?

I still wish them best luck...
