Simply a wonderful game! it recreated the time of Robin Hood and medieval England in a way that captures the magic of the time period like few other games do (lords of the Realm II or Stronghold might have done that later) but the cool thing about this game, is how many game modes there is. The overall goal is to become the dominant lord of England. But this can be done in several ways: you can hold a tournament and challenge another lord to joust with lances over the control of lands. Or you can take a more direct approach, make a small army, and try to conquer regions outright. You can even try to break into an enemy lord's castle at night and see if you can kidnap (i mean liberate :P) a young fair lady to court her. There is no easy way to play this game any more that doesn't require you to fiddle with many settings. Therefor this game belongs on gog.com spread the word guys! we need this game on gog
Those games also need your vote!

D.R.A.G.O.N. Force
D.R.A.G.O.N. ForceD.R.A.G.O.N. Force is a turn-based tactics game. During each round, the player assigns orders to the men, e.g. moving, firing or special actions, which are then simultaneously (together with the AI's choices) performed. There is a strategical map (shows the whole mission area) and the closer zoomed in tactical map. As expected, the three fire commands are especially important: the usual direct fire at an enemy, targeting a specific spot or an opportunity fire which gets triggered by passing by enemies. The environment, e.g. hedges buildings, may be used as cover and affects the line of sight.

Maggot Baits
Maggot BaitsOnce born into this world, you must live. That is the single truth that exists for all life in the beginning. Mentors and models to follow, the will to do good and abhor evil—are all a fiction we learn later, a fiction known as "ideology". Living this fiction is what makes us human. But do we need such ideology to be human, as we do our limbs? Does that make those who lose or abandon such ideology less than human—does it make them limbless maggots? If so, then this tale is devoid of humans—it is a tale of maggots. Crawling to survive, like the maggots we are. ​Maggot baits​, winner of the 2015 Moege Awards Top Fetish game, is the newest title from ClockUp, the studio that brought us the infamous erotic thriller, ​euphoria. Do you have what it takes to stomach this dark and violent tale, maggot?

Resident Evil 0
Resident Evil 0Be prepared to relive the first nightmare in Resident Evil 0, a remastered version of the popular prequel to the original Resident Evil game. This remastered version takes the fear-inducing atmosphere from the original 2002 release and transforms it with stunning new HD visuals, improved sound, widescreen support and an optional modernized control system and more. It’s the best way to experience the story of what really happened before the iconic mansion incident that was the catalyst for the entire Resident Evil saga. The story of Resident Evil 0 takes players back to 1998. Reports have been mounting about unusual murders on the outskirts of Raccoon City. The city’s Special Forces division, S.T.A.R.S., sends their Bravo Team - including rookie cop member Rebecca Chambers - to investigate. On route, the team’s helicopter suffers engine trouble and is forced to make a crash landing, where they find an overturned prisoner transport vehicle. Splitting up to search the area, Rebecca discovers the Ecliptic Express, a train stopped dead on the tracks. Inside, she meets death row convict and ex-Navy lieutenant Billy Coen. Throughout the game, you will take control of both Rebecca and Billy, at times switching between both characters in order to proceed. Learning the advantages of each character is the key to solving puzzles and surviving the nightmares that lie ahead.
