Manly Games Guild: Alien Legacy

Main thread: viewtopic.php?t=2306-manly-games-guild

After much deliberation, voting and bloody duels we managed to finally narrow down our choices to a single game: Alien Legacy.

This is one of my favorite exploration games. It has an interesting story and is quite fun to play at least once. I will not post much about the game itself since getting immersed is part of the experience itself, but it is all in all a nice run.

We are not doing monthly stuff, instead I will set the date from today to 7/17, giving us around 33 days to finish.

The game is abandonware (probably) so best bets to get them are in abandonware sites.

This board requires you to be registered and logged-in to view hidden content.

Game is very stable in dosbox and it should be the best way to run.

If you need troubleshooting, tough luck, gritting your teeth through this is part of the experience.

As in the other guilds, the people who complete it inside the deadline will get a badge, except this one is a very manly one.

Completion criteria will be straightforward, game has an actual ending, so just brave your way forward until you finish.

Have fun.

Need to free up some time to finish kotor, play the Ravenloft game, then play this. Most of my free time has been going to HQ improvements

I naturally procrastinated until the last day, but completed the game again nonetheless.

I had forgotten all about the ****** advisors here:

And then of course I finished the game. Here you can see ken congratulating me for sending my ship to the next system:

And final score screen:

God, this game is good.

Time is up, congratulations to all the manly people who managed to brave all the challenges and win.

I am sure most of you got filtered by setting up dosbox, steep difficulty of the game and overall lack of brains, this seems to be the casualhq after all.

Now we need only to wait for @rusty_shackleford to implement the badge so all the manly winners can get one.
