Does anyone remember an old dungeon crawler called "Dark Heart of Uukrul?"

I played the heck out of this game in the 80's but never finished it. It was fiendishly difficult but loads of fun. I would love to see this game reborn as a mod. I'm not sure how the tactical combat would work in the Grimrock engine, though. Perhaps another game engine would be more appropriate. But perhaps not. Either way, Uukrul deserves to be remembered.

it runs flawlessly on Dosbox. Most DOS titles do.

Of course I remember that game! It was, is and will be, my favourite game of all time. Clever puzzles, absorbing enviroment, decent graphics, automap and fascinating gameplay with very difficult riddles.
By the way the #2 favourite game is Grimrock wich surpasses DM. ;)
