I’d like to see them cover MicroProse’s Darklands, an underappreciated classic of historical party-based role-playing with interesting mechanics you don’t see much in the D&D style slashers.

Darklands is such an under-appreciated classic. I played and re-played it for at least a year as a kid, and still think about its complexities and interesting gameplay mechanics.

If anyone creates the spiritual successor to Darklands, I’d buy it in an instant. There is a mobile game called Occidental Heroes that’s loosely based on it, but a bit too simplified to capture its magic.

microprose had such amazing titles. I still enjoy listening to master of orion 2 soundtrack at my desk job.
