Grimrock

The most intense and best gaming experience that I recall of the last decade was my first day first play —Ironman/single use crystal— session with Grimrock 2. I played it nightly for more than a week, until I completed the game; including Trickster's lair. I wish they'd make more—at least in the sty...

Merry Christmas!

@Skuggasveinn has a good [overland] winter tile set as well.

Blocking monsters too:

Well, what a pity. Many players have hoped for a Legend of Grimrock III. It's surprising that they would move on instead. Many [~some?] of us still have hope, but it seems exceedingly slim at this point. I had hope that u-Mod support would get implemented for the GoG and direct sale versions of the...

It's true, though if your spell casters act last in the sequence (after the others attack), then they are casting their spells while the others recover.

I would bet that the built in tedium of spell casting is entirely deliberate. Mages are casting magical effects out of thin air—and prone to mid-casting mistakes. It's not like they each carry a magic blunderbuss with spell ammunitions for each effect; select & fire, select & fire. The tediu...

I have not tried it out, but the relevant UI hooks would seem to be called only after the normal menu elements are already drawn. It's intended to allow overwriting the GUI. *Of course it might be possible to do this with U-mods, but that's only with the Steam version of the game, and I don't have t...

Antti is still around? [here, I mean]
