Dear Abandonia visitors: Help us keep Abandonia free with a small donation. Abandonia is like an old gaming arcade with only original games. Abandonia helps you have fun four hours and years. If Abandonia is useful to you, please help us forget fundraising and get back to Abandonia.
Many thanks to Maikel for providing us with the game and the review!
A big thanks to Mika for providing us with both the game and review.
Besides controlling the six heroes I mentioned before, you get to enjoy 500 action and combat screens (at least that's what the advertisement uploaded by our member Geezer says) featuring Arcade's own amusement park, Murderworld. Judging by the name it's not a friendly place, and it isn't supposed to be, because that's where Magneto and Arcade are detaining Professor X.
esgmaster receives our gratitude and a nice amount of pieces of eight for writing the review and capturing the screens.
Today, with exclusive help from Dragom, the boxshots and the manual were added to the gamepage. If you want something different from the usual gritty, sober atmosphere surrounding a lot of Abandonia's games, here's a good option to take into consideration.
Certainly, the guys from Silmarils inspired themselves a bit from the ancient greeks' ways of managing their homeland, but with city names like Volgaatil, Xhuultil and Ozgaatil, I'd say the orcish language had a bigger influence on this game. Storm Master is a strategy that tasks you with managing your country, fighting at the same time in a unending war with the neighbour island of Sharkaania.
This was requested a long time ago, so here it is: you can now read the manual in the extras section. Additionally a scan of the floppy disk was added as a boxshot. Both files were supplied, by one of our Grand Magisters - munuainen.
Today's occasion was the addition of the manual for Cryo's adventure KGB (aka Conspiracy). Thanks comrade Greyfox Maquis.
400 Questions are available in today's addition - Word Whiz. A barrel of grog to our friend Tomekk, who uploaded the archive for it.
Oh, you noblest sons of warring fathers, whose grandfathers and their wives fought side by side in ages past, follow me! Dishonor not these ancient and valued halls, whose stones lay stained by the blood of better men. They who died to build this kingdom were champions. They were of your kin and kind, and they need no introduction. But you, all of you, seem content to forget their sacrifice.
Because our manual is a version converted into .doc and it's quite impossible to squeeze anything but text out of it, Taaru made sure that nobody would have a reason to give up before actually trying it by uploading the Copy Protection Answers.
Still, us retro gamers crave for the "Forgotten Sands" we lost in the 90s, and it's quite obvious the newest PoP game (scheduled for summer 2010) isn't going to be exactly the thing we're looking for. Let's hope for a good game, though... The extras section has new stuff in it: the manual, uploaded by Lenor, and an image showing the Copy Protection Answers, by AzureDragon. Fireworks of PoEs for your efforts.
Many of you should be already familiar with the newest game on Abandonia. It's a hybrid between adventure and role-playing elements, similarly to the previous titles in the series, placed in a setting inspired by Eastern European cultures and introducing a new combat system.
Our venerable reviewer Panthro has done it again, by providing a fine piece of text about this Sierra classic, and together with bobson, the one who provided the archive, will receive a real breathing Rusalka, uh, I meant real Russian borsch, spiced with PoEs.
Many thanks to TaloN for providing us with this game and the review.
