Not the First bad DF , hmm ?

I found this game called Dark Fall listen to the review

Dark Fall's graphics are limited to an antiquated and grainy 640x480 resolution; it would have been nice to have seen the game's well-crafted art in more detail. The game also has the annoying habit of lowering your monitor's refresh rate to headache-inducing levels and then not switching the rate back up when you exit the game, forcing you to reset it by hand each time you quit. The game's audio is actually one of its biggest weaknesses. Ghostly voices and mysterious creaks and moans often sound like low-budget sound effects. As you play, you'll find that they're just as likely to detract from the atmosphere as add to it.

Dark Fall is slow-paced and short, and it lacks the gripping story or exotic locales of the best adventure games.

LOl and the company that made it was called Adventure Company o close to our AV

    To the OP, Darkfall is also a book written by Dean Koontz. I seem to remember an earlier book / story named Darkfall back in the 90's but can't put my finger on who wrote it.

    The book is much better then this steaming pile. Of course look at who the author is, not some indie dev

     

    BTW the original game you mention was quite good for its' time period. It had much more depth then the current DF

    Hey, it looks like DF combat, right down to the potion spam.

    That doesn't look anything like DF combat.   The animations are too crisp and clean.
