I bought one of them on dvd, but I think it lost much of the feel. You just can't animate the Discworld. Still it was a good atempt.

I don't know. Rincewind is, for me, a bit far out (even by Terry Pratchett standards)... My favourite characters are Cohen, Death & The Patrician, in that order.
my favourite characters are: the Patrician, Vimes and Death.

Rincewind, the wizards (except for the Bursar) and the Witches of Lankre are my least favourite chracters.

I like the wizards (apart from Rincewind) and the University, I also like the books with the Lancre witchs and the City watch/Samual Vimes in them. And about the games, Discworld 1 was very hard and illiogical while Discworld 2 was much easier, the best by far was Discworld Noir as it had a much more engrossing atmosphere and storyline than the others and the system of clues was genius and I am surprised no other games have taken inspiration from it, I would love to see them on the site.

Discworld is great! It would fit nicely in Abandonia's adventure collection. It is rather large download though (100MB).

warning for visitors of hotu: whatever you do, don't download the game from there the sound file english.smp is corrupted and thus the game doesn't function... (also the english.zip file doesn't solve the problem)

My school theater put up a Discworld play last year... But as I'm a freshman I missed it.This year they put um Alice in Wonderland
I tried to read a Discworld novel few years ago (don't remember which), but I didn't really speak that much english back then (don't do today, either...) so I didn't understand it and gave up... I'm thinking about trying again...

I got this gothic alice in wonderland shooter from one of the designers of the quake series. It's an interesting take on the series I must say. Fighting a big monstrosity known as ''the red queen'' :twisted:

I have that Alice game, the gameplay is not very good but the graphics are brilliant, everything is so twisted and macabre, you find yourself enduring the gameplay just so so you can see the next breathtaking scene.

Thanks for the warning, I was considering downloading it there :shock: . As for the stuff about the alice game, I work in a comic book store and we brought in some of those figures, they were really creepy but really cool!! I've never heard of the game though, who makes it?
