have you seen dark seed 2 too?

they are nice games btw, and are available in the underground (abandonware)

still nothing beats dreamweb as being one of the best and darkest adventure games.

Luckily I remembered wrong: Dark Seed 1-2 are DOS games, not Windows games, so they should work quite ok in modern systems with DOSBox.

I'd buy them in a heartbeat from GOG. I've completed the first one, but never got hold of the second one. I have no idea whether the sequel is any good, but I liked the setting of the first one.

Hmm Mobygames says it was published by 'DROsoft' and wikipedia says that they were bought by EA so that's promising enough...

Wow I completely forgot about that game. I remember wanting it so much when I was younger and never getting the money together. I love to see GOG pick this one up.

According to Mobygames, apparently there was both a Windows 3.1 and DOS version of DS2. Wikipedia page mentions only the Windows version (along with Mac and Japan-only console versions).

I hope there is a DOS version, or is it nowadays easily possible to make Win 3.x games to work on modern 64bit OSes?

i have played it somehow on a windows 7 machine, cant remember if its vmware,dosbox.
i need to check, i wanted to replay them anyway.

edit: ah yes it was vmware, under windows 95/98.
i think there is some win 3.x emulation, isnt dosbox working on it too? would be nice though.
