This game is a must-have! Although it is possible to play it by checking out Legacy Clonk, the dedicated community works tirelessly in their limited free time to keep it alive and running. While it's functional, with the expertise of GOG's talented developers and their potential reach, this game could truly be taken to the next level. Its mod-friendly nature means that, with a larger player base and fan support, the possibilities are endless.
In the past, Clonk had a modest but loyal following and boasted an array of fantastic mods and scenario packs. There were countless PvP leagues with diverse game modes such as Capture the Flag, King of the Hill, Last Clonk Standing, Medieval Mage Wars and many more beyond that.
Decades ago, I had a blast playing locally or in split-screen mode with my friends, digging for gold, tampering with the forces of nature or causing chaos. The game’s modding tools were so accessible that I even crafted a bomb that could practically vaporise an entire map (if it wasn’t maximum size), complete with a stoppable timer for dramatic effect. The Mage Battles were epic, letting you wield the elements like an Avatar and unleash havoc with nature's forces.
Those were truly unforgettable times. Here's hoping this gem gets the revival it truly deserves!
Cheers!
