Love playing Adventure games? Check! Love those old Sierra Kings Quest style graphics with text based commands? Check! Then 'Enclosure 3D', developed by Mausimus as a complete 3D remaster of the 2004 adventure game 'Enclosure' is sure to whet your appetite! You see this isn't just a simple remaster, but the game is using the RVX 3D Engine; an engine which not only remasters the game in 3D but it has the potential to do the same to much older titles such as the original Police Quest or even Kings Quest... Seriously, watch the video below to see how good this looks in 3D!

Moor - A 3D dungeon crawler game inspired by Delver (Concept)


I'm sure many of you remember the game Delver, it was a 3D dungeon crawler that came across as a minecraft style game blended in with a touch of Ultima Underworld. Well as I was trawling through Steam Greenlight I came across a screenshot that looked very much like that game but having a much darker overtone. Sure enough ' Moor ' developed by Fredrik, is inspired by Delver but unlike that game will have puzzle parts to progress through the rooms, so not just running around and bashing enemies.

The Eidolon +6D - Onslaught cracks a C64 Lucasfilm classic


Now here's a game I remember, 'The Eidolon', one of the strangest Lucasfilms games I think I've ever played in my entire life so far.

Thus today through a flood of nostalgic memories, Onslaught has cracked the C64 version and released a very handy trainer!
