Grimrock

My impressions so far, also from someone who's played too many of these games to count, is that this is great. I gimped my mage from the start but have still pressed onward. Now that I can fling ice shards and firebursts, he is doing good. I'm really digging the creep-factor of the skeletons. Seeing...

I think they are going to make a lot of money however..because I have not heard a single bad review. This game has a very good chance of winning Indie game of the year. Hope so. The only bad review I came across was someones impressions over on GOG , where apparently we've all jumped on a bandwagon...

Rather than a C64 version, how about a 256-color VGA version?

I don't see what the point would be to having god-mode for this game. You might as well just go stare at someones maps of the game, or that lets-play...

I dig the timed puzzles. It's a good thing when I am sitting here scratching my head trying to figure stuff out.

I wouldn't call it an unbalanced mess either. I understand that it may not be your "cup of tea", but that doesn't make it "junk". I was fine with the first 3 ES games, and sorely disappointed in the last two... Oblivion and Skyrim would be my cup of tea just like the other 3, ha...
