Medieval Crafter: Blacksmith Review
The smell of ash and soot fill the air- the unforgiving heat enveloping your short form. Droplets careen down your brow, carving out lighter markings where the soot once clung. The bead of moisture gets lost in the dense scruff of your beard as you wipe the sweat away in an attempt to keep it from your eyes before raising the hammer once more. Another swing, landing with a resonant chorus. You couldn't just hear the metal, you could taste it. Smell it. Breathe it. Inhale- the hammer rises.Exhale- the hammer falls.CLANG!Again. The rhythm thrums like the very blood in your
Somber Echoes Review
Somber Echoes is a platform heavy side-scrolling Metroidvania with progressive mechanics and an extensive interconnected maze of a world to explore. It feels a bit like playing Ori, if Ori was set in a dark, mostly destroyed spaceship and had multiple endings, each with their own boss battle. Co-developed by Norwegian based indie Rock Pocket Games and Lav Games, it’s part sci-fi, part post apocalyptic, and also draws from Greek and Roman mythology for both the story and impressive 2.5 D visuals built in Unreal Engine 5. It was originally released for PC on January 21st and later on PS5 and Xbox

Even if the idea never crossed your mind, now you can experience it in Lost in Random, a game developed by Zoink and Thunderful, and published by Electronic Arts.

When kids turn 12, they must roll a magical dice that chooses which part of the kingdom they’ll live in forever. You play as Even, a brave 11-year-old girl who wants to save her
The Alters Review
This can't be happening. Wary hands tousle through unkempt hair as Jans body slunk against the cold metal wall, only slightly slowing his decent as he thudded to the floor with exhaustion. Absolutely nothing about this mission had gone to plan. NOTHING. And now...And now...He peered up, eyes straining against the translucent membrane of The Womb- it's walls thrumming as though it were alive. Maybe it was.... who knows.Certainly not you. You... you are just a builder, Jan. That's how we ended up in this fucked up situation, to begin with. JUST a builder, but perhaps in another life... in another timeline... fuck.

I started the original one a while ago and only a bit but never had a chance to finish. Shame, remastered is Epic exclusive on PC. Thanks for the review and reminding me my backlog :)

What a classic!
The fact I discovered in the public library of my city and rented the game when I was little. Because I didn't had internet and the rental was a couple days, I made an ISO file with Nero Burner to play the game when I pleased.
I was also lucky that I bought games in computer magazines(ComputerHoyJuegos) and Quiosks. Like having: Commandos 2, PcFútbol2001, Grouch(Rocko's Quest), S.W.A.T 3/4, Patrician III, Imperium III(Viriathus campaign being hard AF), Ground Control, NYR - New York Race, Age of Empires I & II + expansions + Mythology(+Titans), etc...
I was the lucky few that managed to buy this game before being delisted on Steam for a few €uros.
BTW if you are looking for "dead games" or want to contribute on a wiki useful for the consumers of the future, the Stop Killing Games community made a wiki with all the games that are being delisted, unplayable or in risk on dying soon:

It was still in the back of my mind, too, right up until I spied this upcoming article (I am SO behind in so much I've been wanting to write ).
But I don't think I could have done a better job - I'd already had my amazing experience with Prey well over a decade before and, though I probably could have done it some amount of justice then, I think I'd be too far distanced from it now.
I guess it worked out for the best though, since now we have this tribute - and more to look forward to!
I'm definitely glad you've listed some options for people who want to play.
I have a few other games I still think about and wish I could replay (from that awkward era of Windows 95).
I keep thinking I should just put together a dedicated machine with either Windows 95 or 98 so I can immerse myself in nostalgia, but I keep getting distracted with other things.

I did wonder if you'd avoid mentioning that part, but to be honest, that's not even the main twist, and I think a story in which Tommy actually manages to defeat the aliens and save everyone just sounds generic and would put people off, so I feel you struck a good balance with what you shared and what you left for people to experience themselves.

I NEARLY added Deadpool as my 10th suggestion, but then my sick mind thought of Ride to Hell, and I couldn't stop myself!
That and it's kind of a mainstream delisted game that has come back multiple times - still worthy of an article one day though I feel.July 06, 2026 -

I couldn't pick a better home to have it, so thank YOU for the opportunity. I absolutely couldn't think of a better title to kick it off with, and it was an absolute blast the whole way through.
There was just SO much to cover here, and while I know some might say that mentioning Enisis death was a spoiler, I felt it was enough of a "lead up to a core mechanic" that I felt ok mentioning it. But by the time I got to the end of the game, I felt I needed to really just set the stage and keep the rest under wraps, because I absolutely had no clue what to expect. I wanted to be sure that anyone else who finds a way to play this (Thanks for mentioning some additional ways!) would have the same first-time experience. Because honestly, and I think you might agree: you only get it once. And I can't say I've ever had a game absolutely put me out to dry like this one did, in SO many ways. I didn't want to ruin it for ANYONE.
Thank you for giving us a place to make ideas like this a reality.July 06, 2026 -

I absolutely do, and you have a few of them mentioned here!
Deadpool didn't make the list!?
A few of these I didn't have on my list, but I'll put them down as well!
I have another mini series brewing as well (PSX Grindhouse Horror) - so I'm trying to decide if I alternate, or I do a few back and forth.July 06, 2026 -

Thank you so much for your insight, and allowing me to harken back to your article!
I can't thank you enough! It was a great help to have another set of eyes and input!July 06, 2026
