FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
I just ran across the game today after upgrading to 9.10 and taking a look at the new software center.
It has very classic looking graphics, that remind you of much older RPGs. It's played in a 2D isometric view. I've only played it for around an hour but I'm enjoying it so far. The game has a nice sense of humor in it's story line but also some seriousness and interesting (but sometimes classical) plot twists that make you wonder what's going to happen next.
I thought I'd share this so any Linux goer can give this a try. It's a must try for anyone who likes classical RPGs.

Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
Nice.
I'll try it out as well.
Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
I remember playing this years and years ago when it first came out for free. It's a fun game, a bit hard to get into at first, but entertaining.
Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
Interesting game, I wonder why this game was on our game list at Ubuntu Gamers Arena. :S Oh well, I'll add it.
Would any of you be interested in writing a review of the game? We'd very much appreciate that, and you would be given credit of course.

Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
I played and actually finished this seriously hard game a few years back (under Windows). It's absolutely brilliant, and I would recommend it to anyone. The story is quite humorous, and it has a few sidequests and little quirks to keep you entertained.

Dink is a nice game by itself, but it really shines for its extensive mod library.

Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
Some sounds are missing from FreeDink though - most noticably the "hit"-sounds. :(
Re: FreeDink : Dink Smallwood RPG
forgive my ignorance, but i know it says it is similar to zelda. is it also a slash & hack rpg kind of like the diablo series?
