Hey, this game is actually on here! I mean, what memories can I really single out about this game? I played this game A BUNCH when I was younger. I still REALLY enjoy this game -- I mean, obviously -- but it was among the first computer games I remember playing. I had the disc and it stayed with me for YEARS because I would occasionally return to it and play it again! Who doesn't love a game where you can just BE a tornado and cause destruction!? Unfortunately, I haven't seen that disc in a while and I fear it's lost. In looking for this game on Steam, it seems like Wild Tangent only really cares about one game more than others, and as much as I enjoy playing Fate, I would ADORE being able to own a digital copy of this game!

Discworld
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist. The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.
