AVADON THE BLACK FORTRESS PARTY MOD MAC
Inside Mac Games Avadon: The Black Fortress is easily one of the best RPGs you can buy for. Both have provided me with oodles of hours of entertainment, and I dip back in pretty regularly. Break those baddies with a second transformation, NEXT mode. If you're looking for somewhere to start, I strongly recommend picking up Avernum: Escape From The Pit - a remake of the original Avernum game, as well as the first in the new series, Avadon: The Black Fortress. Which is an awful lot cheaper than the odd $15 to $20 that Vogel charges directly. You can pick up all of the games in one go for £30, or individual games for between £4 and £7. Most of Spiderweb's games are now on Steam, at far more sensible prices than their own peculiar webstore. Just the written content alone makes his one-a-year output absolutely remarkable, let alone that it appears in engrossing games. They're "classic RPGs", born of a world where Ultima ruled, never feeling the need to abandon a simple aesthetic and interface, while offering extraordinary depth in story and exploration. It's tempting to describe the games as "hardcore RPGs", but that never feels fair. Recently Spiderweb have found broader success by releasing their games for tablets as well as PC/Mac, and I can testify to their excellence on both platforms.
And the 21st is Avadon 2: The Corruption, due sometime later this year.
I haven’t made it far enough yet to see if Bioware-style party interactions are part of the mix, but I suspect they will be. You create one character and recruit others along the way. Mac only for now, Windows and iPad() coming at some later date. Games like the Geneforge series, the Avadon run, and the Avernum roleplayers. Avadon: The Black Fortress, Jeff Vogels latest unironically retro RPG, was just released. Regular contributors like Andrew Hunter, Linda Strout and Mariann Krizsan have been with him along the way, but Vogel is the core creator behind 21 games over 20 years. Of course, it helps that the original team is Jeff Vogel. There aren't many studios that can claim that, especially with the original team still working there. Spiderweb Software, the studio that creates classic isometric RPGs, has just celebrated its 20th birthday. We're a couple of days late with this, but I felt it really deserves a mention.
