Baroque is honestly a game that lives in my head. It's a pretty cool role-playing game that i'd even call a roguelike to some extent. A game where you don't know why you're being sent into a tower with a gun with four bullets, being told by a angel to kill god? Yeah, that sounds fun. I really want this to be released just so we can have it over here in america. We already had the remake (and i wouldn't mind seeing that show up either) but i'd love to see the original come to america officially.
I played this after the fan translation came out and I fell in love with it. It's such a bizarre and compelling game that deserves more of a spotlight. It fits right in alongside modern games like Dark Souls, Darkest Dungeon, Buckshot Roulette and other stuff in that vein.
I'd love for this to come to PC as an easy way to get my friends and other people into it.
Rogue-lite where dying is the point. Fun, weird, Dark Souls style story telling (vague) worthy of multiple runs. Please GoG? It’s a niche game for sure but like Forsaken it deserves a second lease on life.
This is such a fun Role-Playing, Roguelike game with such interesting storytelling and such an artistic vibe. This is for sure a game worth preserving for years to come just so people can experience it, learn from it and be inspired by it. There's a fan translation and the community is there, people just need a good way to access it.
ShadowrunShadowrun is an action role-playing game.It was adapted from the cyberpunk role-playing game Shadowrun.The game is the second video game adapted from Shadowrun, and has a more open ended style of gameplay than its 1993 Super NES counterpart, Shadowrun by Beam Software.
The game is set in the Shadowrun universe, in the 2050s. A time where the blending of technology and human flesh is common; it is around the time the Matrix, a huge computer network, came online, with the ability to jack into its cyberspace directly. It was also a time of magic renewal: a phenomenon known as The Awakening occurred, where magic returned into the world. Sorcery was once again possible, and slowly and seemingly at random humans began to mutate into orcs, dwarves, elves or trolls. This time of upheaval was not without political conflicts: mega-corporations began to control the world. But with their magic, native shamans threatened them and the world geography came to a complete change. The Amerindians and Elves reclaimed an area called Salish-Shidhe, close to the free city of Seattle, a major city in the newly formed United Canadian and American States.Open world Action Fantasy Science fiction Sandbox
