Talk to them, or raid them.

Depths of Peril, an action role-playing title with some elements of strategy mixed in for original flavor, is now available for Windows and Mac OS X on GOG.com, for only $9.99.

The life of a barbarian warlord is no easy one. One must deal with rival factions through diplomacy, trade, and in time, war. Between battles and raids against other barbarian tribes, you build the most powerful faction possible, to withstand your enemies. Building the power of a faction involves exploring a fantasy world, slaying dangerous monsters, solving quests for the city, avoiding deadly traps, and plundering loot to share within your faction. But in this world, actions actually have consequences, so take care. Annoying the powerful and aggressive Legion of Fear faction will cause them to declare war and destroy you. Ignored Orc uprisings in the Black Forest will cause even more trouble. Protect ally covenants that are being raided, because friends are hard to come by.

Depths of Peril is a single-player action RPG (role-playing game) with strong strategy elements. You play as a faction leader protecting the barbarian city, Jorvik, by destroying threatening monsters and completing quests. At the same time, you compete with rival factions to see who will rule the city. Barbarians choose their leaders by fighting to the death! The game comes with some interesting gameplay ideas, like a dynamic 3D world in which your actions truly have consequences and diplomatic relations matter. On top of that, clear and colorful graphics, and solid action-RPG mechanics make the game well worth your time.

If you haven't yet heard about the developer Soldak Entertainment, a small studio with a decade-long history of games made with love, make sure to pick up Depths of Peril for only $9.99 on GOG.com. If you have, we probably don't need to convince you!

I heard rumours of stalkers. Whether they mean going all the way to Poland and waiting outside your offices or not depends on the released game.
Nice to have some new people on board!

tinyE: How is it a game that looks like that is only 96MB? Pong isn't much smaller than that.

I presume the fulfillment of a 4000+ vote wish.

Or maybe another Acccttttiiiiiivvvvviiiiiisssssiiiiiooooonnnn title.

Or, finally, Tommo brings the Humongous games here and GOG graciously accepts because they know even though they are titles directed at children they are bestselling classics that can be enjoyed by everyone.

Yeah based on the size of it I wondered how much of the textures and other files are generated fractionally (or from some other form). I remember downloading a gold-fish screensaver for windows 3.1 I think, and the installer was 3 megs, but when I tried to recompress the files after it was extracted it was like 30Mb.

God, kkrieger in 96k? I've seen some tiny games that way before, but that looks very complex for such a tiny file. Could use <span class="bold">UPX</span> (Ultimate Packer for eXecutables) at which point their actual working size for half their data is anywhere from 300k to 2Mb, but still densely packed.

Wow, that is a huge amount of game for 96k. I've played probably through most of it, and the audio has something to be desired of, however the graphics looks WAY too good for it's tiny package. I took a few moments to look at the floor and wall textures and they are way too complex, both looks and in probable 3d models.
An interesting game. Shame I already have it on Steam. :o
