As a related tangent, Vogel (and Spiderweb Software) were responsible for many enjoyable hours in my youth playing through Exile III and Blades of Exile. I appreciate the world building and storytelling that he's done throughout the years, even if the newer game interfaces and graphics feel clunkier.

Totally agree. I spent a lot of time when I was a kid playing through each of the Exile games and their Avernum remakes. I’m in the middle of playing through Avernum on the IPad, and I love the setting of being outcasts sent to an underground cave system. The game it self is old, but it is still a good story.

I wish the iOS Avernum HD was still available.

Do you mean something else than this? https://apps.apple.com/de/app/avernum-escape-from-the-pit-hd...

I looked it up today and it was available, also the other five Avernum games.

Ah, I didn’t realize it was iPad only. I searched on my phone and didn’t see any results (though I played it on an iPad years ago).
